Subject: [INOWEN] Newspaper?
I am attempting to locate the names of the parents of my great-great
grandfather William W. Bean. William died in Spencer, Owen County in 1888.
Does anyone know if there was a local newspaper that printed obituaries in
1888? He was a civil war veteran so I am hoping that he may have an
obituary. Also, if Owen County has an online will index, can someone point
me toward it? Thanks! David
