GenealogyBuff.com - Miscellaneous Jay County, Indiana Deaths

Plenna T. Bickel (1838-1927) recorded in his diary the dates of death of those that died in the Jay County, Indiana area between 1881 and 1923, with the addition of a few of his relatives with earlier deaths. Although a check of some of the dates show that they are quite accurate, the original vital records should also be researched. This list contains almost 500 names and dates that have been transcribed and alphabetized. Although, Jay County, Indiana has been shown as the location of this report it may not have been the actual place of death for some individuals. Some of the deaths may have occurred in the surrounding Indiana counties of Adams,Wells, Blackford and Randolph, and the Ohio counties of Mercer and Darke. The location of the original diary is not known.
