Subject: Re: How Can I Find County Coroner Reports? From: Jeanette Martin Date: May 27, 1998 Hi there, I don't know 'bout published reports, but I think you'll find them at the county courthouse. I was at ours in McRae,Ga. Pulled out one of the heavy books to see what was in it and found it was the Coroners Reports. Never entered my mind that there was such a thing. Plan to go looking for more. Can find lots of treasures at courthouses.
