Looking for my father in law's death certificate
« on: Saturday 06 April 13 14:52 BST (UK) »
We are trying since years to find somehow information about my wife's dad.
He past away sometimes 1980-1990 in New York / New England area.  We searched for death certificates or were he lived in the last few years - but no luck.
His name is Robert Hart Mounet, born in Montana. His ancestors are French/ Irish/ Walsh ...
We have very little information about him, only that he worked as fine artist through out the US
Any hint or leads are very appreciated
Thanks

Found on familysearch.org:
From the United States Social Security Death Index
R Mounet born 4 June 1929 died Jan 1979, California.
I realize this may not be the person you are looking for but on that website it was the only one with a similar spelling.

There's a Robert Mounet born 1 Jun 1930 on a passenger list from New York to Plymouth England in 1957.  He's off to a hotel in London and is a waiter.  France is country of passport and usual residence Canada so a mixed bag. 

Hope you find something  :)

Hi MargP
Thanks - I think that can be a possibility  - he was born in Great Falls, Montana, his mom lived in Canada - hmm ... so we could find his birth certificate in Great Falls???
