ha haa>> not the reply (below) I expected--but it was just a funeral chapel
(doesn't hurt to ask) & I also e-mailed Claggett Cem people & waiting to
hear from them also. I WILL be walking the Cemeteries for sure that I & you
all have mentioned in previous messages, although you never know, maybe I
will contact DHS. hee heee <G> just kidding!! (I am hard up) I've already
been in contact with all the others they listed. The thing is, I was told
they didn't keep death records back past 1902-1903.

About the Oregon Historical Records Index
Death Records, County
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
The registers and related records document deaths as registered by the
county. Information typically includes the name of the deceased, date of
death, sex, color, marital status, age, place of death, birthplace,
occupation, father's name, father's birthplace, full maiden name of mother,
mother's birthplace, cause of death, contributory cause of death, and name
of person reporting the death.
The records also include some county copies of individual death certificates
with similar information. The records were traditionally maintained by the
county but custody was transferred later to the Oregon Health Division.
Finally, custody was transferred to the Oregon State Archives.

Death Records
Series documents the recording of deaths in the county. Records include
registers and certificates. Information includes registration number; place
and date of death; name, sex, color, birth date and place, age, and marital
status of the deceased; names and birthplaces of parents; primary and
contributory cause of death; physician, registrar, and informant signatures;

Death records were not required by the state of Oregon until 1903 when the
state began to officially register deaths. County death records have been
inventoried through 1920. Access to death records is restricted for 50 years
following the date of death by Oregon Administrative Rule 333-011-0096.
Contact the Oregon State Archives for access to state death certificates
that are more than 50 years old. Contact the Oregon Health Division, Center
for Health Statistics for access to more recent death certificates.

Keizer Funeral Chapel has been in operation since 1984. So, no, we do not
have the information you are searching for. The death certificates usually
state the cemetery name of where an individual was buried. If you can locate
the death certificate you can find him. Once you have the cemetery name,
then you can call them and ask them. If you cannot find the death
certificate then you're just going to have to call every cemtery in the area
Hope this was helpfeul. Good luck with your search.

Subject: ggg-Grandfather's grave James McCubbins
Hello,
I have a question, I have been searching for many years for my
ggg-Grandfather's grave & come to find out that he died in North Salem
Marion Co., Oregon Sept. 6, 1877 & the oregon historical society just told
me that North Salem is now considered the town of Keiser, OR. I was
wondering if you had records back that far 1877 or who I could maybe I
contact to find where my ggg-Grandfather is buried. His name James McCubbins
born abt. 1810-1815 in Virginia & died North Salem Marion Co., Oregon Sept.
6, 1877. He was an Oregon Trail Pioneer of 1852 from Missouri.
Thank you!
