======================

The number assigned in the State indexs is meaningless. Death Certificates are handle by the counties or cities ( If a very large city).

You must first locate the number in the count or city death index and then use that number to look up the death certificate in the corresponding year and city/county death certificate database.

Thank you so much, I can see it was the index part I didn't get to grips with and I have the certificate and I now can find her hubby too.

One very happy birthday girl!
