Over the years I have collected many obituaries from many different resources.  I either received them from family members, emails, letters or websites.

Most of my family members came from St. Francois County, Missouri.  Others came from Illinois, Kansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Virginia and Germany.  If you would like to contribute a photo, please email me at: rebecca@digginforroots.com.
