Kentucky Obituaries - 1787-1784 Page Table Template

 

 

 

Transcribed and submitted to this site by Nancy Bray, thanks so much Nan, this is wonderful!

 

Nancy's note:  

I am going to be typing obituaries from the above mentioned book.  I have picked out the ones that are from the areas in and around Pendleton County.  Beings these obits go so far back,  they might otherwise be very hard to find.  Every now and then I come across one that may be of interest, or have a name familiar with the area, so have included it also.  Most of the obituaries are from around the Fayette County area, so if anyone would like me to look up one for them, just e-mail me and put Kentucky Obituaries, 1787-1854 in the subject line.  This book is also available at the Pendleton County Library.

 

Kentucky Obituaries, 1787-1854

Compiled by G. Glenn Clift

This volume of genealogical notes together with the first book--Kentucky Marriages 1797-1865 (published in the Register April, 1938-October, 1940)-was taken from newspaper files owned by and housed in the Lexington Public Library. The original purpose of the compilation was to make the finished work available only to users of the above mentioned newspapers, in an effort to minimize usage of this valuable source material. With their publication in the Register it is hoped the records will prove of worth to a larger audience.

The obituary notices have been edited to include: (a) the name of the person deceased, (b) place of residence, (c) wife or husband, parentage or other survivor or survivors and (d) date of death. In many instances obituaries too lengthy for inclusion were published by the newspapers. Such notices have been edited for their genealogical value and the word Obituary appended, this to enable the researcher to secure the complete necrology if desirable.

For purpose of bibliography an abbreviation of the name of the newspaper from which any notice is taken is given with that notice. The notation following any obituary refers in every instance to the year named in the obituary. As below, in the first entry, KG 10/6 designates the (Lexington) Kentucky Gazette, October 6, 1787. The abbreviations used in this first installment denote: KG (Lexington) Kentucky Gazette and R. The (Lexington, Ky.) 
Reporter.
