I learned in an email I received today that Ancestry has added a new database that is of particular interest to me. The Kentucky Death Records, 1852-1953 database includes digitized images of the actual certificates! This is great news! So far, I’ve been able to get copies of the death certificates I needed from this time period for just $1 from a woman I’ve made contact with in Kentucky, but this is even better!
Kalonji, my stepmother’s sister-in-law, and Kalonji’s brother all have ancestry in KY, so I should be able to make great use of this. My friend RW also has some ancestry in parts of Kentucky so I should be able to use it for her as well. This is absolutely great!
