Kansas Death Records
A state or country’s death records can provide a wealth of information if you’re searching for links to a family tree. Kansas death records were officially recorded after 1911, and you may find some older records on a county level. But, if you’re searching for vital records in Kansas, keep in mind that privacy laws are extremely stringent and you can only access a death record if you’re a member of the immediate family or have a legal issue for which you need the document. Most records (if you qualify) can be obtained from the county where the death occurred (from 1911 until present day), but if you submit your application to the main office in Topeka, Kansas, the wait may be ten days for receiving a response. Send your notarized application form with the fee and any details you can provide about the death to:
Kansas Dept. of Health and Environment
Curtis State Office Building
1000 Southwest Jackson #120
Topeka, KS 66612
Phone: (785) 296-1400
Newspaper archives, church and mortuary records may be good sources for information if the record can’t be found based on a state-search. Be aware that these records may not contain as much data as you were hoping for, but it may lead you to another resource. When you do receive the death record, you may glean such information as the date of death, marital status and name of spouse, cause of death, names of parents and where they were born and the deceased place and date of birth.
