Known Issues
Question #1: Some indexed records have been attributed to the wrong place. How can I determine the correct death and burial information? Answer #1: The event place can be checked by viewing the Catalog section containing the film notes. Search the Catalog using the film number included in the record detail page. A list of known problems below provides correct indexing information.


 * Many indexed records from Batch B54740-2 and Film 1533565 have a death place of Vinton County, Ohio. The correct duplicate indexed death records can be found in Ohio, County Death Records, 1840-2001.
