Hi Laura, This list is an obit list for Washington Co PA. These are VERY helpful to researchers who have no access to these old obits. These contain a lot of wondeful information often found nowhere else. Thanks, Vickie for your hard work! I particularly appreciate these last ones as I have been very interested in establishing how the Belgian emigrants were affected by the flu of 1918. Hope you find more... Thanks!
