This study provides mortality data for respondents to the TECUMSEH COMMUNITY HEALTH STUDY, 1959-1969 (ICPSR 8969). The seven variables in the data collection include an identifier to link the mortality data with the core data file, the contact month and year (for respondents who were alive during the 1978 ascertainment period), respondents' mortality status (alive, dead, or unknown), the month and year of death, and the cause of death (International Classification of Diseases, 8th Revision codes). These mortality follow-up data were recorded for the 8,637 white respondents to the original data collection.
