I'm doing geneological research on my ancestors, but I'm not sure it's okay to call up a church and ask, "When did so-and-so die?" or "Can you give me all the information you have on so-and-so?"
I'm sure there are procedures for these kinds of requests; I imagine they get them all the time.
I'm particularly interested in the Catholic Church, since almost all my ancestors were Catholic. From the US, Canada, Scotland and Greece.
