Death records 1862-1867
Here are some records of
deaths in Waitsfield, Washington Co, Vermont, from 1862 through 1867. Again, I
would like to stress that these are probably not any kind of official record,
just something my ancestor wanted to keep track of. If any of you with
knowledge of this town during this time period can make any corrections for me,
please let me know, his handwriting was really bad, and I'm having a little
trouble figuring out some of the names.
