SRI Death search, surname unknown

Post by heymarky » Mon Feb 26, 2007 11:15 pm

Anyone have advice on how I might search the SRI Death records for a person when I don't know the surname.

Specifically, I am looking for females for whom I haven't found marriage records. (yet)

(Is the surname for a married female the maiden name? Maybe I'm working under a bad assumption...)

Thanks in advance!

Oops. The answer is right there on the SP website:

Married women
Married women are indexed under maiden and married surname(s), if known by the informant. Enter current married name, previous married name or maiden name in this field.
