BATES COUNTY MISSOURI DEATHS
Zion Lutheran Church, Rich Hill
Funeral Records, 1888-1909

Note: these were handwritten records, partially in German; the transcriber apologizes for any errors. These burials were in the Lutheran cemetery in Rich Hill unless otherwise noted in the "Comments" section.

I stopped at 1909 since Missouri death certificates, starting in 1910, are available online from the Missouri Secretary of State's website.
