Grand Traverse County Coroner's Records, 1963-1965

Grand Traverse County Coroner's Records, 1963-1965

Death -- Causes.

Collection of Grand Traverse County Coroner's Records, 1897-1965. Attached to this record are the reports and index to the volume, created by volunteers of the Grand Traverse Area Historical Society. The records were created by the Coroner's Office as part of the process of investigating a particular cause of death; therefore, they can often provide information beyond what is recorded on the death certificate. The coroner's necrology and pathology reports may include details on the health of the individual and the exact manner of death. Inquest testimony may point to family relationships, as friends and family often provided sworn statements. Police statements and jury testimony and verdicts may also be available, leading to research in court records or penitentiary or prison records. The first entry in this volume is dated 26 November 1962. The signing coroner is Thomas R. Cajigas, MD. He was a pathologist at Munson Hospital and had been serving as coroner since January of 1960. Beginning with the second entry, the coroner’s office appears to be shared by Philip Wiley, MD and Joseph C. Steffey, MD. In 1965, Dr. Lavern V. Wolfgram has taken over the office. The last record in this volume is dated 31 January 1965. The remainder of the book is blank.
