Obituaries Index


Obituaries Index
This will be the section for Obitiuaries for people who were born, resided, or died in Greene county.

Please feel free to submit an obitaury - just give the date published and name of newspaper - even if there is an Obituary listed please feel free to submit it especially if it is from another newspaper - or if you know it was in other newspaper and have the date of publication etc. - they can be listed at the bottom of an exisitng obituary as another source for it.

If it is a "clipped" obituary it is also welcome - just state that date and newspaper is not known - these I call "shoebox genealogy" - mom's, grandma's or auntie's - often they would clip an obituary of a relative close or distant, a neighbor, or a friend they would be saved in either a shoebox, a cigar box or tucked away in a bible.

I have obituaries that I am working on right now that have to be broken down and I have ideas or working them into the WPA Deaths and also into a cemetery database - along with pictures of tombstones (some of which are on the old site as yet). This will take sometime to organize and do - this will be a work in progress tweaked as I go. Each obit is an individual page and file name is the person proceeded with their death date - as to avoid an overwrite of a file and a matching clue in the future.


Online Obituaries for 1 June - 17 June 2007 are non-existant - In fact the whole newspaper for that time period seems to be lost in cyber-space.


Obituary Rules - :
  • Can be out of any newspaper etc. not limited to a Greene county Indiana source
  • Person must of been born in Greene county
  • Person must of graduated from a Greene county Indiana High School
  • Person must of resided or worked in Greene County Indiana at one time and connetion mentioned in Obit
  • Person died elsewhere but was buried in a Greene County Indiana cemetery
  • Obits can be clipped -
  • Obits can be transcribed -
  • Please give the name of Newspaper, date of publication etc. if possible
  • There can be more than one obituary for a person, from more than one newspaper - just let me know and I will post all obits under the same entry for the person - remember each obituary could differ in some small way!

This is the first listing of an obituary index - with now obituaries attached:
