Barren County KY Deaths as Found in the Order Books, 1799 through 1863.
When there are no newspaper obituaries, no stones in the cemetery, no funeral home records, where does one go to find when an ancestor died? We check the will books and maybe the inventory & estate books. However, wills were often rejected & not recorded; estates were too small to handle. Have we checked the County Order Books? Deaths were shown there in a majority of cases as executors (wills) or administrators (intestate) were presented to the Court. Although not showing the actual date of death except for the Revolutionary War soldiers, this book lists the name of the deceased, the Court session date when presented, the Order Book in which the death was recorded and whether there was a will or the individual was intestate. Also shown are notations if the person had died previously and no one had come forward to handle the estate. No children of course would be shown. The Order Book itself would then provide names of executors or administrations, with much more information. Presented in alphabetical order, this 38 page listing of the deceased as recorded in the Order Books #1 through 9 is a place to check when the researcher cannot find any other reference. $5.00
