About these records:
"They were all transcribed from hand-written documents, so there are inevitability
mistakes. Therefore, I invite anyone who sees a misspelled name to send in a correction (send to KimmySueT@aol.com).
There is much more information about most of the persons named in the actual funeral
home documents, i.e., parents listed, reason for demise, etc. "
