Obituaries from the CLARION DEMOCRAT: 1916-1917 - Reed

OBITUARIES FROM THE CLARION DEMOCRAT: 1916-1917. 2001 compiled by Sally Jordan Reed. This is one part in a series of volumes containing the complete obituary transcripts from this early newspaper. The obituaries written during this time period were far more elaborate and contained more information than those written today, including cause of death, birth place, cemetery in which interred, occupations and activities of life, as well as the names and whereabouts of spouse, children, parents, grandparents, etc. Some listings are one paragraph but many are several paragraphs and others are a full page. These obituaries also contain names of people who were not from Clarion County, but had relatives or "ties" to the county, or lived there at one time. You will find countless bits of information and clues for genealogical research in this collection. Every-name index. (Volumes are sold separately.) ISBN# 0-9703825-6-1 103 pages, 8 1/2 x 11 softbound
