Shirley Hulett's message about the Oberlin College Archives and Nancy Mear's follow-up about the OC Archivist, Ed Schwaergerle, prompted this message. I have been looking for obituaries of Oberlin High School classmates and posting them to the O-High Alumni web site at http://www.oberlin-high.org/obits/obits_frame.html. To find obituaries, you need to first find the date of death, and to find that it is helpful to know where a person lived and, for married women, their married name. I have found that, particularly for the earlier OHS classes, many (over 50%) graduates went on to Oberlin College. There is a 1960 "Oberlin College Directory" I found in the HisGen Library in Boston that not only lists all the Graduates for each OC class up to 1960, but also lists the Non-graduates. It has separate sections for Liberal Arts, the Conservatory of Music, the School of Theology, the Preparatory School, the Kindergarten Teachers School, etc. For those listed it usually tells where they are living in 1960, married names and husbands names for women, and the date & place of death for those who are deceased -- a great resource for genealogists. O-High Alumni http://www.oberlin-high.org/ has also become an excellent resource for genealogists interested in Oberlin families. Complete OHS class lists from 1910 to 2001 contain about 7800 names, and we have posted about 315 obituaries from papers around the country and are adding more weekly. Check it out!
