Dear Listers, Does anyone know if there is a source for early (1820-1840) newspaper obituaries for Mercer Co., PA? I'm trying to find one for my great-great-great grandfather, William NELSON, who died in Slippery Rock Twp. on or before July 4, 1828. I think he died suddenly, and fairly young (40-45-ish), so perhaps he died in an accident, or was killed by indians (?) William was married to Elizabeth COX, who outlived him by at least twenty two years or so, but I don't think she remarried, as I'm pretty sure I found her (age 65) living near one of her sons, Ezekiel NELSON, on the 1850 Slippery Rock Twp., Lawrence Co. census. If anyone can suggest any source for this information, I will be very grateful. Thanks for your time and efforts on my behalf. Best regards to all, Lynn
