In the US for the last one hundred years all states have required a death certificate when someone dies. Some states started requiring death certificates even earlier. This is filled out by a physician.

Death certificates are filed in the county courthouse of the county where the person died. In some states they are filed in the same office as land records, in others they are in the clerk of court's office.

Records do not exist before the requirement of a death certificate became law in all states. The best records for the older days are family bibles and the like.
