In hopes that it might help someone's research, I'm posting information on
surnames (not being researched by me), which were contained in "The Michigan City
News" on February 4, 1891 - Page 8, Col. 4
January Mortuary List:
(All of the following relate to January 1891)
Following is the list of deaths that have occurred during the month of January, together
with the ages and causes of death:
1st - Nels Swanson, 33 years, intersusception
8th - John Barnes, 2 years, congestion of the lungs
12th - John Strial, 52 years, inflammation of the bowels
19th - Mrs. Gotthold Grassle, 83 years, lung and stomach troubles
21st - Alfred Kellogg, 3 years, disease of bladder and kidneys
23rd - Walter J. Fuss, 3 years, pneumonia
27th - Chas. Garrett, 1 year, pneumonia
29th - John Miles, 50 years, drowned; John Killanowitz, 2 days, congestive chill
30th - Mrs. Elvira Van Deusen, 67 years, chronic bronchitis
I didn't copy it, but also contained on this same page is the obituary for Mrs. Van
Deusen. From the portion that I have, it appears to contain a lot of family names and
locations, as well a much information on Mrs. VanDeusen's life.
The only name mentioned herein that I'm researching is: BARNES
Hope this is helpful to someone.
