Texas City Death Records
In Texas, death records are generally held by the county clerk for the county where the death occurred. Several large cities also operate their own vital records offices that handle deaths within city limits. Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Austin, Corpus Christi, Lubbock, Amarillo, and other major cities have separate offices that issue death certificates independently of the county clerk. When you are not sure which office holds the record you need, contact the Texas DSHS Vital Statistics Section at (888) 963-7111.
