    2. Barbara Johnson
    3. Good Morning. I have a copy of the obituary below, from the newspaper (microfilm) if anyone is interested. I would also like to hear from anyone who may know who Richard Shelby HARTs parents were in Henderson Co., KY. >From the obit. Richard Shelby HART was born abt 1881 in Henderson, KY. I know the SHELBY family described in the obit is connected to the HARTs I'm researching, but I'm not sure if this is the same HART family. Later in Henderson Co., KY., there were HART descendants from a HART family from Ireland and one from Germany, besides the ones I'm seeking. I have not yet found out where Richard S. HART is buried. I'm assuming it's somewhere here in Seattle, WA. When I do find out, I will make a visit with my camera. I would gladly supply anyone interesed with a copy. Thank you, Barb Johnson Seattle, WA. bejhart@earthlink.net =========== OBITUARY ========== THE SEATTLE TIMES THURSDAY, NOV. 25, 1965 Richard S.
