Hello. Does anyone know if the newspapers in the Lansing area are indexed, and how far they go back? I am looking for the obituaries of my cousins who lived in Lansing from the 1870s to 19??s. I would like to request a lookup of the obituary for John KELSO, who died 22 Oct 1877 in Lansing of heart disease, and also the obit for his widow, Ann KELSO, who died between 1880 and 1900, most likely in Lansing. Also, any other Kelsos in the area and also Nathan and Julia (Kelso) BOOSINGER, who both died after 1900, probably in Lansing, and any other Boosingers in the area. I will pay for copies and postage as I would like hard copies. Please also write down the day, date, and the newspaper so I can properly cite them. Many thanks! Ashley Emerson
Hello, I am new to this list. I am looking for the obituary of my great-grandmother, Gladys Rebecca (Morris) Molliter (sp), who was born in 1902 and died Dec. 11, 1958 in Lansing. She was married to John (?) Molliter (sp), who was still living at the time of her death. Thank you. Ashley Emerson
I'd appreciate it if the list member with e-mail address [email protected] would please contact the listowner at [email protected] . Thanks! Robin Grattan

I have instances in my family where people died that way. Death records that far back will only have the city, not the actual address of death listed. Many early newspapers had all sorts of community comings-and-goings, so I would consider the possibility.
Lisa A little more info would perhaps help--perhaps paper obit was in, era , or part of state---UP --Mid state , Lansing, Was this a family name?....??? I have found the WWW.google.com search engine great....
I have been asked to clarify a previous posting of mine regarding the Franklin House. My ggrandmother died in Lansing, Ingham County, Mi on 2-25-1892. He obit from the Lansing State Republican said "died at the Franklin house yesterday afternoon after a two weeks' sickness". I was wondering if this Franklin house may have be a hospital of some sort. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Lisa Seward
I would be interested in corresponding with anyone with a connection to a J. W. Hinchey. He was possibly living in Lansing in the late 1800's (1892). Lisa Seward
I am wondering if anyone has information or may know where I could get information on the "Franklin House." In my ggrandmothers obit it stated that she died there after a 2 week illness. Was it a hospital of some sort??? Lisa Seward

Thank you for those Michigan marriage and death URLs. Found my husbands grandparents , The NYC list info remains in my memory as somehow attached to all forms of entertainment--circus ,as well as vaudeville, stage, early movies and somehow attached to and maintained by the present day Actor's Union {maybe}...I mispoke when I said museum....I know there is some retirement place for circus people on the WEST coast of Florida...I've seen it and there was a piece done by some TV show about it. I can only suggest you try the NYC list.....seems everone eventually gets there if their folks came thru that port...no matter the year.... Florence
We maintain the Michigan Marriage Index Database that has the following: GEORGE - BRADFIELD m DIANA - NOSIER in WASHTENAW Cty 25 JAN 1873 Probably a mis-spelling of her last name. If conneted please let us know. Also, regarding the Circus Museum. Several years ago while on vacation with our children we visited a Circus Museum (along with active circus) in Wisconsin. Don't remember exactly where it was but we travel from south to north and traveled primarily near the coast line.
