There are a few places.  If you are family of the deceased, check with your county/parish Coroner's office.  If you are family, you could receive autopsy reports, toxicology reports, etc.  If you are not related to the deceased, you could only get a Coroner's report, which is a one page report pretty much stating cause and manner of death.  You could try your state's Vital Records office (or a health unit) for a copy of the Death Certificate.  Not sure if police would give you certain reports.  Those reports would tell you the actual events leading up to the persons death, the coroner's reports will tell you how and what the person died of. Hope this helps.

you could consult public records for the city/town they were living in at the time of death, you could check church records if you know where they attended church

I wasn't able to locate J.Walter Smith with the information you provided. There are just too many of them in the data base for me to be sort through. If you know the state where he passed away, you can probably find the obit here.\nhttp://www.obitcentral.com/\nHope that helps\nD

look up their website, click on obituaries, if it's still not in the list, click on 'archives' and type in his name. You can find their website by typing their name into yahoo search or google.\n\nYou can also request a 'back issue' copy of the paper online (you'll probably need a credit card) or on the phone, for the day the obit ran.

Do a search for the county newspaper or the city if you know where he lived.  Which state is this county in?  If the newspaper is online you could probably find the obit from there.  If there is a big city close by you might want to check out their newspaper as well. You could also contact the funeral home and ask for a copy.

Try the local health department or clerks office of the courthouse in that town.  Also, you may be able to retrieve that information by going to the local library and searching obituaries from past newspapers.

a good website is www.b4usearch.com\n\nClick on the "people" button above the search box. If you have some information about the person you're looking for then it can generally help. I think it uses the electoral register to locate them though, so if they're not on that then it won't be any help, good luck with your search!

Try 'switchboard.com', or in any search engine, just put the person's name in parenthesis, and then click on search, that way you may just be amazed that you find your friend, but you may also find some other info posted about or by them on the net!
