The TLGS Local Obituary
Project involves scanning
all obituaries found in
the two local newspapers -
the Vilas County News
Review, and the Three
Lakes News.
Information recovered from
the obituary includes
surname, first/middle
name, nickname, any
appropriate title, maiden
name (if appropriate),
birth date, death date,
the obituary date,
newspaper name, and page
number.
The individual's
information is then loaded
into a composite file and
the obituary scan is
linked to the individual
entry.
Behind each of the years
listed below is a page
showing the above
information for each
obituary that appeared in
that year.
On that page, clicking the
link on the person's
surname will bring up the
scan of the obituary as it
appeared in the newspaper.
This is an ongoing project
and new obituaries are
loaded as they are
completed, usually on a
yearly basis.
