This index of typed obituaries ranges in dates from 1902 – to 2011 and was compiled by David Parsons, who wished it to be shared on ‘The Lawrence Register’ website.
These obituaries are persons associated with descendants of the Lawrence County, Ohio Hardesty/Lake Atlas family trees and were typed exactly as they were first published in the newspapers. Most of the newspapers are from Ironton, Ohio, Huntington, WV, Gallipolis, Ohio, Ashland, KY, and Point Pleasant, WV. Even though this is not a complete list, it is an important material for the genealogist.
There are a total of 2,141 obituaries listed, some were abstracted from several newspapers. I am adding the entire index, but bear with me in getting the entire file posted. I apologize that it has taken me so long to post them.
My sincere gratitude goes to both David Parsons for compiling this list and sharing it with me and to Brenda McClaskey Wilson Cook, who was a tremendous help in formatting these obituaries. - Martha
