How do i find someones death record?

March 14th, 2011 2 comments

Can someone PLEASE tell me how to find someones death record or can someone search it for me ? Someone recently died but the thing is im not sure if that person is really dead because they live in another state (Its my aunts boyfriend) The person who ”died” lies alot so it is very hard to believe 🙁 someone please answer asap thank you!!!!!!
Name, Osvaldo Chavez – Death November 4th 2010 and location is somewhere in california he is 38…..

It is way too early for this individual to be showing up in any death index. It takes about a month for the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) to be updated, for example, and, even then, some individuals never show up in an index for one reason or another. We could look for an obituary, but California is a BIG state with a LOT of major newspapers… an impossible search without knowing the general place of death. Also, in some cases, the deceased does not get an obituary or death notice.

You will just have to wait until the next SSDI update. In the meantime, you and your aunt might try learning more about Osvaldo’s alleged place of death. Does he have family members that you can ask?

………………Death Records……………?

I am trying to find someone and I have reason to believe they passed away in the same state that I live in (Florida). Where can I go (besides the internet) to find a death report or a coroner’s report?

You may be able to find an obituary, in old newspapers on microfilm at the library, but you’d need to know the city and date. Those are easiest to find on the Internet; this SSDI, for instance, was last updated Aug 12, 2010:

If the person died in an accident or as the result of a crime, there may be a news article as well or instead of an obit.

Unless you are a child or parent, or the person has been dead for a long time (how long depends on state law, and each state has its own) you won’t be able to buy either one. If you are related, you’d buy it either at the courthouse in the county the person died in, or from a state agency, usually a division of the health department.

Tardy Brothers – Eternal Lies

John and Donald Tardy together in a death metal project, what else do you need to know?.
I didn’t know what to think about this album, at the beginning I thought it was a joke or a Obituary worship thing, but I found a good death metal effort with some nice tunes in it (this one is my fav). Just check it by yourself.

From their 2009 “Bloodline” album (Candlelight Records).

Where can I find an obituary from 1980 for free?

April 5th, 2010 3 comments

I am trying to located an obituary for my grandfather’s brother, who I believe to have died in 1980.
I am not sure if he was living in New York or Florida at the time of his death, but I do know that he was born in New York around 1911.
Does New York or Florida have free access to public records such as obituaries?

If you want his death certificate, look in the public records by going to the Vital Records Office of the town where he died. Obituaries, though, are not public records. They are newspaper items.

I’m not trying to quibble. I’m trying to point out the difference so that you don’t spend time going in the wrong direction.

How can I find out death record of a person in Houston,texas,this year 2009?

The person has just disappeared & I do not need a death certificate or anything just want to know if something happened to this person.

Google the person’s name and the word "obituaries." If there was an obituary, then you’ll likely find a link to it. You can also try looking them up in the Social Security Death Index (address below), though if they died this year, it’s probably a little early for it to have been reported.

At least this is a start.

Where can I go on the internet to find free public records for obituaries? Every time I search, I hit a brick?

wall with a darn ad selling peoplesearch crap. I know there has to be some way to access public death records by city, county, name, birthday, or SOMEWAY without having to pay someone. PLEEEEASE HEEELP!!!!!

I can help, but what is needed, is a reality check.
First.. an obituary is NOT a public record, nor is it free. It is a paid announcement in a newspaper. Many persons don’t have obits (their families choose not to place one). Many newspapers choose to not be online.
A death certificate is defined as a public record.. which does NOT mean that there are no restrictions on those. Many states LIMIT access to the death certificates to immediate family, or do not allow them to be accessed for 50-75 yrs. Death certificates are controlled by the state vital records offices. When thinking in terms of county based records.. nothing anywhere is an obligation that they be online.
If you go to www.rootsweb.com, you WILL find that they offer (free) the social security death index. What it is, is VERY specific.. it is an index ONLY, and it only covers deaths in the US since about 1960ish. Earlier records do exist for ssi.. they simply are not computerized.
If you are researching family history, this is important to remember. The internet is a massive collection of information. It does NOT have everything you might want. Ancestry.com does have many records that you will not find elsewhere, for the simple reason that they are in business to sell service. Meaning access to certain records that are not otherwise available. You might find them free by going in person (which may mean across the country), so the service is completely legitimate.

Maze Of Torment (Morbid Angel Tribute)

March 23rd, 2010 19 comments

Known as one of the pioneering bands of the death metal genre, Morbid Angel are also the first death metal band to have a significant commercial success, selling over a million albums throughout their career. This is due in part to them also being the first death metal band to get signed to a major record label, Giant Records, in association with Warner Brothers Records.

Morbid Angel was formed in 1983 in Tampa, Florida. The band made their vinyl debut in 1987 on New Renaissance Records. They recorded their debut album, Abominations of Desolation, in 1986, but the band was unsatisfied with the final product and it remained unreleased until 1991. Their first proper studio album, Altars of Madness, was released in 1989.
Morbid Angel was one of the original death metal bands signed to Earache Records, and was also influential in the transition of death metal from its thrash metal roots to its current form by adding guttural vocals, up-tempo blast beats, incorporating atonality in guitar soloing, and dark, chunky, mid paced rhythms. They were also the first death metal band to have a touch of mainstream success, such as being signed to Giant Records in 1992 and having the music video for the song “God of Emptiness” shown on an episode of Beavis and Butthead.
The band’s original lyrical themes focused mostly on Satanism, paganism and anti-Christian subject matter, but from their second album, Blessed Are the Sick onward, the lyrics slowly moved toward the ancient Sumerian gods, though much of this is a nod to the Simon Necronomicon, which was influenced by Sumerian mythology as well as the author H. P. Lovecraft as well as a fascination with the Roman Empire, though “anti-christian” elements continue to permeate the lyrics. Their albums are notable for being released in alphabetical order (their first album starts with the letter A, the second with B, etc.). Guitarist Trey Azagthoth has said in an interview that it was at first a coincidence with the first albums

My Mothers Murder, in the 60’s. Mary Palubicki Cummings?

March 10th, 2010 1 comment

My mother was murdered in the mid to late 60’s. Why is it so hard to find any record of this? I do not think it right that corporations should make a dollar on my search for information on her death, and I will not tarnish Her memory by paying one red cent to them in my search. Not that She isnt worth it, but that they should not profit one bit from her murder. The homicide happened in Chicago, Illinois in the mid to late 60’s is all I know, and I have to find the death notice/obituary regarding this, I just have to. Please, if you know anything about this, or how to find out, tell me. She was buried in Resurection Cemetary.
Thank You.

If I need to know where someone is buried in the states where can i find records or help?

March 2nd, 2010 4 comments

I know the name and birth year and death year…im not sure whether they are buried in New York or in New Jersey…but i might visit so i need to know where to pay my respects….how can i find out where some1 is buried,and which cemetary?who would i need to get in contact with?

They might be on www.findagrave.com

http://www.tedpack.org/obit.html has four ways to find an obituary, with links. Obits almost always say where the person is buried.

If you find him on
http://ssdi.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi
you may get the exact death date.

It would be slow and costly to get a death certificate, but you may have to.

If you post what you know, here or in a new post, someone may be able to help. Ancestry has digitized millions of newspaper pages, including obits.
