Message Board Post:
I don't live in Starke County and had to ask Marv Allen from the Historical Society.
He was kind enough to provide the following information.
The Knox library has all the Knox newspapers from 1892 up to present day on microfilm. The
North Judson library indexed all of their microfilmed newspapers of the North Judson News
from 1897 until 1970 when it closed. Then they indexed the Knox papers from 1970 to 2006.
Their index lists over 20,000 Starke County obituaries. There are copies of the index at
the Knox Library, Knox Historical Society and Genealogical Society.
The Health Department has the birth and death certificates and an index of them going back
to about 1890. The County Recorder has the marriage certificates.
