I am researching the death of H. Arthur Douglas, a mining engineer who drowned in the Kern River while working on an hydro-electric project around 1903. His body was never found. Did Kern Co. maintain death records in this period? Are indexes available? What newpapers may have covered this story, and are they available in microfilm today? Thanks!
