1894 Reported Deaths
Riley Co., Kansas


The following table contains deaths reported to the County of Riley for the year 1894. It certainly does not include all deaths which occurred that year; at that time it was not mandatory to report a death to the county, although if the death was attended by a physician it most likely was. The spelling seems to vary wildly; do not depend solely upon the search engine to find names. The transcriber apologizes for any errors.
