The microfilm copies of the 1914 Marshall County Death Certificates were stamped with as many as 3 different  numbers.  Very often, the 3-digit identifying numbers used by the State Health Department as identifying numbers in compiling the 1914 Index of Death Certificates were too faint to read and sometimes missing.   Many Certificates  were out of any chronological  or date sequence.  Quite a few were "double copied."  One should go to the 1914 microfilm roll for Marshall County and then work one's way through all death certificates for that year.  The reel contains certificates for several counties.  The counties are not in strict alphabetical order.  Marshall County was within Volume 36 for the 1914 year. The Index reported this Death Certificate as 1914 Marshall County # 439 and what may be that number appears, barely legible, high on the right upper corner of the page.  A large, bold # 160 appears in the proper block.
