Wyandotte Death Index

Wyandotte Death Index

The Downriver Genealogical Society was founded in 1980 and is representative of seventeen communities in South-Eastern Wayne County, Michigan. The purpose of the society is to further the study and sharing of genealogical research by preserving and perpetuation the records of our ancestors and to encourage and assist its members.

The Downriver Genealogical Society entered into an agreement with the City of Wyandotte to transcribe the death records and record them on the computer for use by genealogists.

The above flies contain information about persons who died in the City of Wyandotte, County of Wayne, State of Michigan. Information record includes name of deceased; death date & place; age at death; sex; marital status; birth date & place; spouse; father and mother with birthplaces; cemetery; undertaker; page number and any additional comments. This index covers deaths up to 1962 and does not include Ford City.

Special thanks are extended to Ms. Christine Hensley for spearheading this project, as well as Mr. William Griggs, City Clerk of the City of Wyandotte and his Staff for their assistance in this project.
