Hi Everyone!
Has anyone ever used the DeathRecords.com site?
If so, was it worth it?
Thanks

Ive just looked at the site, to me its just for the USA, unless that what you require, probably costs an arm and a leg.

No point if its UK records you want

Where are you and what country records do you want to see?
If you can get to a local records office - any office - you can view the reords for the country (ie Welsh records in Wales) for free!

I do have some relatives who emigrated to the USA, and that site does have some promising "hits" for their deaths in its database. Unfortunately however, they only accept US-issued credit cards. Apparently if you're overseas (from USA) then you have to mail them an international money order (with $2.50 surcharge) - which all seems a bit too difficult on the off-chance that it might be useful.
