Jane, I was hoping that it was available in Mt. Vernon, MO and I could get a friend to go make me a copy. Does anyone know if the library has a website?

Pat, You might e-mail the newspaper library at the State Historical Society in Columbia about the Marionville paper. A year or so ago I e-mailed to ask if they had St. Louis paper films of 1896 to find information about a relative who was killed in an industrial explosion. My intent was to get the papers ILL and look for the information. They replied they had found 17 items on the subject and would loan the papers or send copies for $12, as I remember. I sent for the copies and received a great amount of information. It seems that one obituary would not be so very expensive. You might check -- hope this might help. The e-mail address for the page is: <http://www.umsystem.edu/shs/newspaper.shtml>. Alice On Mar 22, 2007, at 10:25 PM, Pat Miller wrote: > Jane, > I was hoping that it was available in Mt.
