Newspaper Obituaries on CD's
Series of CD's
containing images of obituaries found in the Cornerstone Genealogical Society's
microfilmed newspaper collection. CD's include original images of death
notices, obituaries, memorial notices and other articles relating to the deaths
of Greene County area individuals found in the pages of the issues of the
Waynesburg Republican and Democrat Messenger on microfilm at the library.
The images were taken from the microfilm reader while compiling
the Society's obituary index, and since they were not originally taken with the
aim of publication, their quality varies. While most are completely readable,
some may be quite difficult to read or partially illegible due to the condition
of the microfilmed newspaper, the quality of the microfilmed image or the
quality of the digital image taken from the microfilm reader.
The obituaries are arranged by the issue date of the paper in
which they were found, and an alphabetical name index is included on the CD.
The following CD's are available:
Waynesburg Republican Obituaries 1859-1933
Waynesburg Republican Obituaries Volume 2 1956-1975
Waynesburg / Greene County Democrat Obituaries 1882-1913
Democrat Messenger Obituaries 1931-1958
These CD's are for sale at $25.00 each, plus shipping and PA tax if
applicable.
