Pennsylvania Death Records by County

Pennsylvania's 67 counties each play a role in maintaining death records and vital statistics. County courthouses hold records that predate the state system, including death registrations from 1893 to 1906 filed through the Clerk of Orphans Court and earlier records from 1852 to 1854 held by the Register of Wills. For more recent death certificates, the state Division of Vital Records in New Castle handles all certified copies.
