    1. Wichita Falls death lookup
    2. Looking for a death certificate for my great uncle that died in 1919 in Wichita Falls, Wichita Co. According to a newspaper article in his home town of Denton, TX ,dated Sept. 27, 1919, which was published on a Monday, it stated he had died on Friday night and he was in the Wichita Falls Sanitarium when he died. The article further states he had only been ill only a day or two at the time of his death. He had been working in the oil fields near Wichita Falls when he became ill. I am guessing that he died Sept. 24, 1919 but it could have been earlier. His name was Whit Ross and was 29 yrs. old. I'm not sure if Whit is his given name or a nickname. His mother went to Wichita Falls to identify the body but not sure if she brought back him back or left him in Wichita Falls for burial. Can anyone help me?
