There might have been something in the Versailles Republican. I
believe that the paper has been microfilmed and would be probably be
on loan to your local library. I imagine that it is available in the
Indianapolis library. Where do you live? Often, there is only a
small note such as "Two children of Mr. Myers died in a fire".....if
they just died of a local disease, it is often not mentioned.
Children died young so often. There are others on this board who
are more knowlegeable such as Lori.
Thanks for the vote of confidence, Marilyn :)
I saw nothing in the indexes that I have access to about these deaths.
The newspapers are indeed on microfilm.
I suggest a request be mailed to RCHS, along with the research fee, an
SASE, and a small donation to cover copy costs, to see if mention of
these deaths could be found in the family file.
