This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3BC.2ACE/1676 Message Board Post: Hi all, I have a question that I hope someone can answer. I just received copies of the funeral records for my great-grandparents. They both had fabulous information but on both forms, the cause of death and the price of the funeral were whited out on the copies sent to me. Especially with the new interest in medical histories, why do they white out this information. Thanks, Debbie

Not all funeral homes do. The one you got the forms from is a little more careful about 'right to privacy' things.
