Patricia, We have obituary sources as follows: Obituary Abstracts from Louisa County Newspapers, 1878-1898. Obituary Abstracts for the years, 1900 -1913. We also have newspapers on microfilm for earlier dates. In those cases, we would have to have at least the month and year of death to do any research. Next time I am at the library, I'll check those books to see if any of your names are listed. Jan -----Original Message----- From: Patricia J.
