How to Find Texas Death Records: Difference between revisions

'''Before 1903, no deaths were recorded by the county or state'''. A few death registrations delayed registrations of death from 1890s-1990, as reported from obituaries and probate records, are grouped with the regular death certificates. These early records are frequently located in the final few volumes of a given year, but may be interspersed throughout a volume set.  

If you cannot find your ancestor's death record before 1903, you may wish to search [[Substitute Records For United States Death Information|substitute records]] to locate your ancestor’s death date and place.
