At this point,
I do not have sufficient early obituaries to devote one page to each year,
therefor I have grouped all early obits that I currently have available
into one index and yearly groupings, instead of monthly. As I obtain
enough obituaries in any one year, I will create a page just for that year.
After the date in the year groupings, I will indicate the source of the
newspaper obit as follows:
CBH = Coos
Bay Harbor Newspaper
CBN = Coos
Bay News
CBT = Coos
Bay Times
CCH = Coquille
Valley Herald
if
there is no source indication, the obit was taken from "The World"
newspaper. If you want the complete obit [the early ones don't always
have additional information], please send me a message -- be sure to let
me know the name and year. Happy searching.
The following
years have one or more obits on line.
