Death Certificate Translation in Maryland
Maryland death certificates come from the Division of Vital Records in the Maryland Department of Health, and estates are opened with the Register of Wills in each county, with the Orphans' Court deciding contested matters - a court that, despite its name, deals with estates rather than orphans.

Ethiopian death records
For the large Ethiopian community in Silver Spring and the surrounding suburbs, a relative's death in Ethiopia may be documented by a death certificate from the vital events registration system introduced in 2016 or, for earlier deaths, by records from a local administration, a church or a court.
Each is translated for what it is, with the date given in both the Ethiopian and Gregorian calendars. For a Maryland estate, or to show that a marriage ended, the translation makes clear which kind of record the family holds.
