Hi, folks: In preparing scrapbooks for the Historical Society, I have found more obituaries/death notices for 1886. Let me know if you are interested in any of the following: Clifford, Lee Colby child Doyle, Philip T. Hinckley, R.C. Lewman, William McAdams, Perrian Novork [Novak?] boy Reister, Sarah Ruggles child True, Burley Also, Sheryl Brown has submitted an obituary for Louise Karlowski, which has been added to the obituary page. Thanks, Sheryl! Finally, I thought I'd throw in a few gleanings from the Beacon. I picked some that would have appeal to at least one researcher on the list. All are from the Lincoln Beacon. Nov. 11, 1886 Some men appreciate the value of the ballot. Tom Strange and his brother Aaron Strange rode 44 miles to cast their votes for the straight Prohibition ticket. Sept. 30, 1886 Sept. 27, at the home of Thomas Malone, in Lincoln Center, by Rev. J.J. Hillman, Aaron O. Strange with Miss Hattie B. Couse, of Saltville, Mitchell County. Quite a large company assembled to witness the ceremony and bid the young people a Godspeed on the journey of life. Oct. 14, 1886 At the house of the bride's parents, Lincoln, Kansas, Sunday, Oct. 10, 1886, by H.C. Bradbury, minister of the gospel, William H. Cecil and Jennie L. Rees. Oct. 21, 1886 At Lincoln, Kansas, Oct. 20, 1886, by Henry C. Bradbury, minister of the gospel, Sylvester H. McAfee, of Ellsworth, and Jennie S. Walters, of Pleasant Valley, Kan. Now, it's time to watch the Masters (and, I confess, work on the scrapbooks at the same time). Tracee
