The history department at the Memphis Shelby County Library on Poplar has all the old Memphis papers on microfilm. You might contact them and see about getting someone to do a lookup for you. http://www.memphislibrary.org/ Melissa -----Original Message----- From: OpusLola@aol.com [mailto:OpusLola@aol.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 26, 2005 10:19 AM To: MSTIPPAH-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [MSTIPPAH-L] Yellow Fever Epidemic Marsha, sorry I cannot remember just where I saw that information. I think the Commercial Appeal, the Memphis Newspaper, published lists of those who died during the epidemics. Many of those were, of course, from Mississippi. Maybe you can find the information at the newspaper site.

War suits them. They are splendid riders, first rate shots and utterly reckless. These men must all be killed or employed by us before we can hope for peace." General W. T. Sherman
