Seeking a certificate of death for the above mention male. His date of death was between 1910 and 1920 in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania however, when searching Ancestry there is no records found. I have massaged his name every way possible to try and locate information.
If anyone has a suggestion, I would greatly appreciate the input.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Most vital records are not online due to state privacy laws. You will need to order them from the government body that holds them. Don't use Vitalcheck. Order them directly yourself.

It would help a great deal if we had some idea of when was he born (even if only approximately). Otherwise even if someone did find a William Campbell who died there it would be impossible to know if it is the one you're looking for. And how sure are you that he died in Dauphin County and died between 1910 and 1920?

Mistakes are often made on death certificates but not anywhere near as many as Ancestry made in indexing the Pennsylvania state death certificates. I suggest trying various spellings, soundex, etc. Remember you don't have to fill in all the blanks and the search engine allows the use of wildcards.
