Kimball) death between Nov 1926 and Jan. 1930. My grandmother said he died when my dad was very young, I found that she had remarried by 1930 and was living in Upton Co. at that time. Any help is appericated. Thank you, Nina (BrtMoon96@aol.com)

Hi Nina, TX Death Records don't have a KIMBALL who died in Wichita County between 1903 and 1955. The only Claude KIMBALL in the TX Death Records (1903-1940) died in Harris County on 28 Feb 1937. (Could they have divorced rather than Claude dying between 1926-30?) In the 1920s, some counties didn't always report every death to the state. But the county should have a record of the death. Contact the County Clerk's Office. Wichita County Vital Records Wichita County Clerk P.O. Box 1679 Wichita Falls, TX 76307-1679 (940) 766-8100 or 766-8144 Bill Allen <misterbill@pdq.net>

Nina, After you have a specific date of death and proof that he died in Wichita County, contact Andrew Jeler at the Public Library.
