Gone But Not Forgotten, Volumes 1, 2, & 3 - By Verla Fleck Young and the Genealogical Society of White County
Verla Young spent thousands of hours extracting death information from 1872-1946 Carmi newspaper microfilm, and members of the Genealogical Society of White County have added extractions from 1819-1871 newspapers in Shawneetown and Grayville. The result is a compilation of "dead relatives" with dates, and, and in later years many of their spouses, parents, siblings, etc. Some years were not microfilmed, and some had missing articles or sections, but the entries that were readable are provided here for your genealogical enlightenment. 826 pages, hard-cover, indexed. These are hardbound 8½" x 11" books with over 800 pages in each volume. They are fully indexed to include those who died and anyone else mentioned in the document being extracted.
