I have several relatives that lived in small towns and died in a hosptial in a neighboring town. Therefore the death certificate and social security have different locations of death.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15004402809278028855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-266495682245162271.post-77381440122830459622013-07-25T09:50:02.482-05:002013-07-25T09:50:02.482-05:00I am involved in a death certificate indexing proj...I am involved in a death certificate indexing project. A few things I've noted: <br />Counties that had a charity hospital had numerous deaths of people from surrounding counties. If that hospital was located near the state line, out-of-state patients died there. <br />People killed in auto accidents often did not die in the county of their residence. These persons may have even resided in another part of the country.<br />Inmates in prisons, insane asylums, etc. died in those institutions.Katnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-266495682245162271.post-62294613790481083172013-07-24T09:15:01.506-05:002013-07-24T09:15:01.506-05:00Researchers always need to think outside the box. ...Researchers always need to think outside the box. We may not know why an individual is found in a different location but we always need to be open to searching in other areas. I found an ancestor that died in the early 20th century and was buried two counties away from his home. I have yet to find out why he was in this county or why he was buried there rather than returned to his home for burial. A member of his family came to the county to sign the death certificate so it was possible to travel. It just adds to the mystery of the research.Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833237510094432039noreply@blogger.com
