In Morgan Co. you can get these certificates for $5.00. The key is you must tell them
they are for genealogy purpose.I went to Owen Co. for 3 death certificates, they cost me
$5.00 each and only had the name and date of the person who died. I really was needing
the names of their parents on them, also, as they were for DAR. In Lawrence Co., they put
the parents name on the back if they are not using the form that list them on the front.
I did not look at them until I got home, which was a big mistake. So I now need to go
back and see if they are listed anywhere on their certificate book or I will have to turn
to obits, wills, and probates.Janice Enk
In Oregon they now have a long and a short form. The short form has no real info on it and
is pretty much worthless, but it does have the mother's maiden name and only the state
that she was born in, not the town or county, same for the father's info. So if you
ever need one from Oregon make sure you get the long form. I said all that to say that you
might check to see if Owen Co has a long and a short form too and maybe that's why you
didn't get the info you are looking for. And then again, it might be that they
don't have any other info on that particular person.Good luck in your search.
