Lawrence County Death Records
Some Lawrence County Death Records are available on microfilm. The Archives at Ohio University has them, but they are getting ready to transfer them to the Ohio Historical Society. The LDS Family History Libraries also can order in the microfilm for you for $5.50 per roll of microfilm. I have done this for my TAGG ancestors and found mixed results. They do not list spouses or parents and not everyone is listed. But it is better than nothing.
