Contributed by Brenda Joyce Jerome

Reprinted with permission from Vol VII, No. 2 - 4 of The Western Kentucky Journal. Abstracted from microfilmed death certificates from KY Dept for Libraries and Archives. In some cases, the handwriting is faded out and hard to read. The number at the end of each entry is the certificate number and must be used when ordering a copy of the death certificate. Note that surnames are often spelled in two different ways on the same death certificate.
