Summary: I hate Valentine's Day, so this holiday episode is all about death records. They rock my world. The focus is on Social Security and county-level death records, featuring my favorite: DEATH CERTIFICATES! Learn about the 6 W's of assessing the purpose and value of a record before you ever use it, and then we'll talk specifics about the US Social Security Applications and Claims Index, the US Social Security Death Index, death certificates and death indexes. Even if you're from outside the US, the 6 W's will be useful to you in creating best practices and in assessing best evidence. Put down the red wine and chocolates - it's genealogy time! Join the Facebook group and participate! facebook.com/groups/FromPaperToPeople and answer those three questions!
