About Wisconsin, U.S., Death Index, 1808-1907

This database contains over 439,000 death records from the state of Wisconsin recorded between 1820 and 1907. Wisconsin is one of few states to have a wide-spread index of records prior to establishment of a state vital records office. However, it is important to note that there will be some records at the county level not included in this statewide index.

Records contain a link to the Wisconsin Historical Society site, where you can order a copy of the original death record.
