Madge, contact the Library in McArthur. There is a lady there who has copied and preserved hundreds of obits for that area. The name of the Library is Herbert Wescot Memorial Library on Ohio Route 93 in McArthur, Ohio. I can't remember her name but she was very helpful and works in the Genealogical room. I found so much info on my Darby and Graves lines of Vinton County it cost me about $40.00 in copy fees at .10 a page. She is a storehouse of information. Call Toll Free (866) 821-0446 or Local (740) 596-5691. Hope this helps.

A recent visit earlier this Fall revealed that the house and barn have been destroyed within recent years and the land is marked property of Mead Corporation. A wooden shoe maker's box with Ira's name written in pencil is stored in my late Father's work shop. While I was at that auction, a man jumped from the back of a truck, caught his ring on a tail-gate chain and lost his finger. I always wondered what happened to that man. > >
