Death Index

The Local History Department has early death records for Scioto County from 1856-1908 on microfilm. The county was not required to record death records prior to 1856. Deaths were not recorded from 1859 to 1866.

Records during this time period are sparse and details were often omitted. The following index will list name and date of death. In some cases it was necessary to check other resources for names as the handwriting is difficult to transcribe. If another date was found, then it is also listed along with the source. In some instances the person has more than one death record, but with contradicting dates. Both are listed. Information from these records can be obtained by contacting Local History or the:

Scioto County Probate Court
602 7th Street
Portsmouth, OH 45662

Please note, as with any genealogy research, there may be mistakes in original records and in transcriptions of those records. Please check all possible spellings of the surname.

The Early Death Index consists of:
Volume 0 - 1856-1858
Volume 1, 1867-1880
