I have found two death certificates in Georgia for my great-grand-uncle, who died in February 1924 (most likely). One son (E.B.) filed a death certificate soon after the death date that is on his tombstone, and while the birth year is wrong, it seems credible otherwise. That November, another son (E.E.) filed a death certificate, but put the death in November of the previous year, marking through the 1924 dates the clerk must have originally put, and replacing them with 1923. I've checked the death certificates filed immediately before his and immediately after--and he definitely filed this in 1924. I think the November date is completely wrong, but why would such a certificate be filed? Is it possible the second son needed some sort of proof that his father had been dead a year, in order to get some sort of asset? By the way, the physician is the same on both certificates, but he also has backdated his service to the man into November, when he had originally said it was February. I've attached the two certificates. Any thoughts?
