Yes you do apply the same way, as for any other certificate not to bad for $26.00

Thank you very much Jericho.... I'll apply for the death certs then - thats a lot of info....
Gosh, my thought processes are so disjointed, I'm getting befuddled with all the names/dates I'm getting myself confused!!!
