    1. Searching the obits
    2. Don & Vicki Stewart
    3. Group, Ken posted two obituaries yesterday that I needed and I just want to say how fortunate we are to have him posting these out. We have had a lot of newcomers to out list and I would like to make sure everyone has the know-how to use this valuable resource. For Caldwell County visit: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/admin.board/an/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.caldwell For Lyon County visit: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=admin.board&r=an&p=localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.lyon Directions: Close to the top you should see an empty box with the word Search by it. Type in whatever surname you would like to look for. To make things less overwhelming, it is best to click on the dot by Caldwell Board or Lyon Board before you click on the GO. Ken adds new ones almost daily so you will probably want to check back occasionally. Also, the ones I just grabbed are 1995 obits- thank you Ken. When you are done there, you may want to check the following areas also. Crittenden County: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/admin.board/an/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.crittenden Livingston County: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/admin.board/an/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.livingston Margaret Byers has contributed much to both of these boards.

There is an area marked classification with a drop down menu, if you wish you can select obits and just search obits, rather than all posts. Please note, once you select a certain type post, all boards you visit will reflect that same classification until you change the classification. Some other obit boards you may want to check are: Sellers' Western Kentucky Obituaries: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/admin.board/an/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.sellers Mattie Obituaries-Scrapbook Collection: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/admin.board/an/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.mattie Wiley Obituaries-Scrapbook Collection: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/admin.board/an/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.wiley Here's a good place to check for obituaries also. Browning Genealogy: http://browning.evcpl.lib.in.us/ A big thank you to Ken, Margaret, Betty, Julie, Nancy, and everyone else who has contributed their time and efforts to get these out there for us to view, read and save. This is all done on volunteer basis and it really is so valuable to family research. Best of Luck, Vicki
