I found this great website, that lets you search for, view & print death certificates in Michigan from 1897-1920! This is an awesome tool for Michigan Genealogist. It's been around since 2008 (I believe) and they have more history than just death records such as photographs, maps, spoken histories, and documents. I especially love the Civil War photographs & records!!
Happy Hunting! :)

Genealogy slump
We all go through times when we just can't find anything or life takes over & we don't have time to research all that we want to. I have been there. This last year & a half has been crazy here in the Carsten house. My husband Marty is still recovering from Meningitis, but he is doing GREAT! A year ago our little foster baby J left our home & our hearts are broken. We felt the most joy we could have ever felt when we adopted our 2 foster children Z & S. We left our home church of 11 years to follow what God has for us.... and in return have found some of the greatest friends ever!
In July I feel 3 different times, broke a couple toes, and ruptured two disc. Spent the summer healing & loving on my kids... and now we are knee deep in football/cheerleading... ugh!! Hoping school starting will give me some chances to do some genealogy research.
Much love,
Sherry

Time for Summer/Brick walls
Hello all... I've been really busy this winter. Ready for camping this summer... we've got a couple of family reunions already planned. For Marty's side, we have the Martin family campout in June & the Carsten family reunion in July. My family hasn't done a reunion in a long time. Would love to do a Vincent family reunion. But I did find that there is going to be an Aldrich one in July... that will be interesting! :)
