You might want to try your public library! It worked for me.

The county courthouse has those records and you can get them there. Also some counties are online and you can order copies of the records. The ones I have found online have all charged a fee of around 10 to 20 dollars but was worth it.

What state/area do you live in?  Many states have free online resources and searches.\n\nRootsweb is still "free" but they were bought by Ancestry and lost a lot of the good features.\nthey still have some good free search tools like the Social Security Death Index: http://ssdi.rootsweb.com/\n\nMost public libraries now subscribe to a Library edition of the popular genealogy sites.  So you can do all the lookups for free at the library computer center.\nName searches, obit records, census images, etc. Another really good resource is old city directories on microfilm or microfiche, which often go back to the mid 1800's.\n\nOr you can just find a nice person to do free lookups if you are needing a specific piece of information. Just post to one of the genealogy forums -- those dont require paid memberships to post.  I like genforum.\n\nI live in Illinois and I used to pay for a site, but my library has subscriptions to everything now.

Contact the church or Vital Statistics office in your town.  Vital Stats can tell you where to go to view records this old.  If you still have a professional Librarian, that person is an excellent source also.

Well, Ancestry.com is an excellent site. You can get a free \n2 weeks. You can get a lot done in two weeks by looking up recent census records by name, which may tell you approximately or specifically where they live. And then play around from there for more information.

There is usually a way to look at public records for free, if you go to the location itself. You have to be really specific and know exactly what you are looking for though, dates, names, etc,. Otherwise you can waste hours looking though log books or unindexed records. What you are paying for typically is photocopies or technology improvements to make these records web search-able or at least posted to a computer terminal. Some public records contain sensitive information and it is not in the government's best interest to make the data widely available (people's soc numbers, drivers license, birth records, etc,.). There is always the free alternative, but it usually will cost you more in your time than letting the professional have a crack at it.

Go to your local bureau of vital statistics and they can give you a copy of the death certificate.  It should be listed in the phone book.  It will cost anywhere from $5-$15.

Some libraries has subscriptions to the census images; you have to use them at the library, usually. The rest of these are free, but with advertising.\n\nhttp://www.cyndislist.com/\n(240,000+ links, all cross-indexed.)\n\nhttp://www.familysearch.com\n(Mormon's mega-site)\n\nhttp://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi\n(450,000,000+ entries, of varying quality)\n\nhttp://www.usgenweb.net/\n(Subdivided into state sites, which all have county sites.)\n\nhttp://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi\n(Social Security Death index - click on "Advanced".)\n\nhttp://find.person.superpages.com/\n(US Phone book, for looking up distant cousins)\n\nhttp://www.ancestry.com/learn/facts/default.aspx?ln=\nSurname meanings and origins\n\nA word of warning - there isn't a magic site that will take your name in and give you a 12-generation pedigree. Genealogy takes time.\n\nA second W. of W. - You won't find living people on any of the sites except the phone book one. You will have to find your grandparents' or great grandparents' birth dates and maiden names somewhere besides the Internet.\n\nA third W. of W. - The free sites are supported by advertising, just like TV. You can't watch the Super Bowl without seeing a beer commercial, and you can't surf for dead relatives without seeing an Ancestry advertisement. Don't complain about advertisements. They bring you the "free" sites. There's no such thing as a free lunch.
