There were three county papers at that time: Colorado County Citizen (Columbus), Weimar Mercury, and Eagle Lake Headlight. Which of these do you think might have his obituary?

I am working on the Hiram Brown line. He was married to Jennie E. Brown, her GGF was Spencer Burton Townsend. Zoe

My favorite critic has told me that I do not give you people enough information. So this time I am going to be very specific. If you will go to http://www.rootsweb.com/~txcolora/obitst1.htm you will find the obits that have been loaded for those people whose names end in "T." (As you will probably guess I'm related to the Taylors.) Down toward the bottom of the page you will find not only obits but pictures for Rose, Susannah, Thomas and William Taylor. All pictures except Susannah's were cropped from pictures of old pictures by a novice. (Hopefully, my next lesson will improve the quality. I am just anxious to show you what can be done. With your help we can made this an interesting and informative site.) Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share my love of Colorado County and genealogy with you. Dorothy Albrecht Coordinator, Colorado County TXGenWeb Project

Hi! I've beem busy playing wih our website. As I mentioned earlier, obits have been added. Since working on the Osage Cemetery, Dorothy Cox has sent obits for the Montgomery-Thatcher Cemetery and they are now on line. If you have obits for family, friends are others buried in Colorado County, please consider sharing them with us. I have touched on schools (see Willow School and Diamond Grove Academy) and communities (See Bernardo). This will give you an idea of what can be done. They certainly are not in their finished state. Just like a genealogy, there will never be a finished web site. I am finally getting to the place where I know a little bit about handling photographs so hope to include more and more--putting them on the community, school, cemetery and obit pages. If we ever get any biographies, photos could go on those pages as well. Come see us on the web and let us know what you think. Dorothy

Sometimes those hotlinks work on mailing lists and sometimes they don't! Go to http://www.thevictoriaadvocate.com/columnists/wolff/story/436704p-550254c.html for the Henry Wolff column on Colorado County tombstones. Rox Ann Johnson

After goofing off for a while, I finally got around to adding to our GenWeb site. There have been a large group of obituaries for people buried in the Osage cemetery added. These were some I had in a database that was to be used in writing a booklet on the cemetery. But thought that you might like to see them. Also, hope that that would inspire you to share any obits which you might have. (Included on the web are several that were sent to the mailing list in the past) Bill Stein at the Nesbitt Library has committed to linking people on the library burial list to any of the obits we publish. He will be out of the state next week, but when he has caught his breath, I will be pushing him to get with it.

You may want to check out Henry Wolff's column in Friday's Victoria Advocate: <A HREF="http://www.thevictoriaadvocate.com/columnists/wolff/story/436704p-550254 c.html">The Victoria Advocate</A> It's a humorous look at actual tombstones in Colorado County.
