Title: Multiple cause of death, 1992
Description: This data collection contains information on all deaths processed by the National Center for Health Statistics for calendar year 1992. Each record in the file includes data on underlying cause and multiple cause of death, place of death and residence of the deceased, whether an autopsy was performed, and the month and day of the week of the death. In addition, data are supplied on the sex, race, age, marital status, education, usual occupation, and origin or descent of the deceased.
