Re: Physician Records for 1900 or 1918

What records are available in Roane County (tax, land, estate, etc.) that would help break through the brick wall of validating my great grandfather's (William Elsworth Lee) death date?
I have not been able to locate a will for him.
I have three death dates:
3 Jul 1900 (from RCHS cemetery book Vol II, page 96);
1906 (found on his actual tombstone, I posted a picture of his tombstone on Find-A-Grave);
and 6 Jan 1918 (a WV death certificate for Wm Lee, state file no 10057, also it is listed as the second entry (unnumbered page) for 1918 deaths in Roane).
