This collection consists of newspaper clippings donated to The Seattle Public Library by the Seattle Genealogical Society in August 2017. The most complete coverage for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer is from January 1978 through June 1980, and January 1982 through December 1983. All other years are clearly incomplete or absent. One folder for 1970 appears to only include newspapers from Ohio and the 1989 folder has only a few obituaries from the Magnolia News.
This new index has been compiled from the death and burial records of twenty-four churches in Hamilton County, Ohio. It contains nearly 11,000 deaths recorded in the death and burial registers of individual priests and ministers before 1850. Although index entries vary considerably in detail from church to church and year to year, a particular entry may contain any of the following valuable information: full name and maiden name (where applicable) of the deceased, names of parents, surviving spouse, date of death, age at time of death and date of burial. Entries are alphabetized by surname and are coded with a letter or letters corresponding to a key of churches, allowing researchers to consult the original records for clarification; an "*" preceding the church code denotes an original record containing birth information for the deceased. An alphabetical listing of maiden names and corresponding married names follows the index. Hamilton County, Ohio, Church Death Records, 1811-1849 is intended to supplement the cemetery extractions published in the Hamilton County Burial Records series (also published by Heritage Books, Inc.). Although these church registers do not provide a complete record of Hamilton County deaths and burials for this time period, they can be used to fill in gaps in the official record and suggest new avenues for genealogical research. This volume is particularly valuable for family researchers whose ancestors may have passed through Hamilton County during the western migration but were not residents. The deaths of transient pioneer families are often unaccounted for in county court and cemetery records and were seldom noted in the obituaries of Cincinnati's newspapers; in some cases church registers are the only record of the deaths of these individuals.
Ohio wills and estates to 1850: an index is the culmination of a ten-year project to provide a comprehensive index to the probate records in Ohio. Probate Court was formed in 1852, taking over those functions of the Common Pleas Court which had previously been handled by that office. In most Ohio counties, the records were transferred to the new court, but in a few counties the original probate matters have remained in the Common Pleas Court records.

This index was prepared in 1946 by Carrie L. Broughton, State Librarian of North Carolina. The material has been arranged in two parts: Part I, Marriages; and Part II, Deaths. The entries have been made as brief as possible, listing each name alphabetically, giving date of marriage or death, place of residence, the paper and date of publication. Marriage entries include the names of both bride and groom as well as the place of marriage. Part I contains about 8,000 entries and Part II contains about 4,000 entries. These are some of the most important extant vital records for ante-bellum North Carolina.
