I found this web. and it has a lot of obituaries of the MARTIN name 1 - 200 obituaries, from the following newspapers. Just type in last name. It is a payed web. but can be helpful in Kansas research. It give the date and the name of the newspaper. The Gazette Emporia The Daily Hays News The Hutchinson News Lawrence Journal -World The Mahatten Mercury The Topeka Capital - Journal The Wichita Eagle www.oa.newsbank.com/oa-search/we/Archives I thought this would help someone in Kansas research. The Topeka Capital -Journal can be joined by singing up on there web for free and you get the news everday on the internet. Donna Osborn
