Using St. Louis City [Mo.] Burial Certificates Microfilm at St. Louis County Library:
Film Guide by Year, 1890-1893


Introduction  |  List of Missing Months
Film Guide by Year: 1882-1889 | 1890-1893 | 1894-1896 | 1897-1899 | 1900-1902 | 1903-1904 | 1905-1908
Film Guide by Roll:  1-27  |  28-47  |  48-64  |  65-81  |   82-99  |  100-110  |  111-122

Before using this chart, be sure to complete the steps listed on the Introduction page for this microfilm set. After step three, you should have the date of death and burial certificate number and, by checking the list of missing months, know if you have hit a dead end because the film set does not contain certificates for that month.

To select the correct film for a given date and certificate number, find the entry line in this chart that contains BOTH

  • the date of death in the starting/ending date range
  • the certificate number in the starting/ending certificate number range


The certificates on the films are not always in perfect chronological order, and as a result, certificates from the same month may be on separate rolls of microfilm. If using the films here in the department, follow the descriptive list on the side of each Burial Certificate film box.
