The public library normally keep up to date birth and death records. I don't know how in depth they are though, but good luck

Answer 2

You can go to the Town Hall where they will have his death certificate. Depending on what you already know, go to the police station in the town that it happened and fill out a report request form. Most records are able to be made public and anyone can request a report. Even if they can't give you all the information that you need, they will be able to tell you where else to try.

Answer 3

The library may have something on microfilm- or the newspaper might-look for the year- also the court may have a record of the trial- which may not be open to the public- on the death certificate is the cause or causes of death- check it out- sorry to hear it- take care-D

Answer 4

Due to the increased occurrence of identity theft, new laws were passed to protect death records from misuse. (H&S 103526)
California law permits certain individuals to receive authorized certified copies of death certificates.
The law describes authorized individuals as
A child, grandparent, grandchild, sibling, spouse, or domestic partner of the registrant.
