There is a movement under way that I enthusiastically support to convince the Pennsylvania legislature to provide the means and infrastructure to place old death certificates online. If you think this is a great idea too then click the link below to find out more about it and how you can help. Death certificates are a premier source of parental names, cause of death, dates of death, and more. There is no logical reason not to provide this information for long ago deceased Pennsylvania residents. Please help out in any way you can.
