Hello list and before I forget get Happy Holidays, I mentioned in an earlier e-mail that Nancee(McMurtrey) Seifert of the Decatur Co., Iowa list has transcribed hundreds of obituaries from the newspaper microfilms and posted them on the list. Her work has helped me and many others tremendously. I have about 800 old obituaries from the Mildred Crutcher scarp book. I thought I would post a few tonight and see what the response is good or bad. Several of these are from the Spickard, Grundy Co., Missouri area just a couple of miles across the county line. I can't post those here. I may post them at the Grundy Co. site later. I will put the persons name in the subject line so if you don't want to open it just delete them. If I do hit on someone from your family let me know. I will also post at the bottom of each obituary the amount of information I have on the deceased person. Jerry Jones

Jerry, I too vote for the obits from Grundy Co., as well as Mercer Co. I have a lot of relatives in both counties. Also Decatur Co. & Wayne Co., IA. Thanks for the offer.
