I recently attended a webinar on how to find funeral home records for our ancestors. The presenter listed many different archives and online resources to find these records and more. Since we are a genealogical library and not an archive researchers may not find our records very easily. SBCGS volunteers have been working with local repositories for many years to preserve their records. One such project was with a few local mortuaries to digitize their Funeral Record books for their archive and to make them available to family history researchers.
We have a database of indexed records of various types, this index is searchable and if you find a record you are interested in you may request it for a nominal fee.
Here’s a list of the categories of records we have available so far.
So if you are looking for death records you can see we have more than just a few. 
Here are examples of the records we have digitized and indexed.
We hope you will check out our index and find an ancestor or two that were here in Santa Barbara in the past.
