If you don’t have a death date for an ancestor, make certain you cite the “last alive” date. For some that’s the date they signed a will or last appeared in a census.
Of course there can be other records as well that document that “last alive” date.
Track the “first dead by” date as well. For some that’s the date from a court or probate record.
But always make it clear that these dates are not death dates.
