Mike and Trina A. Lannan of Kerrville, TX collected and compiled
the obituaries for the period 1 Jan. 1980 through 31 Dec. 2004.
The other years are compiled by FGS members. The
data in this obituary section is updated regularly.
|
Particular
items that the researcher should be aware of while using this
data are:
-
The
Fredericksburg Standard-Radio Post is a single newspaper
today. However, prior to October 1984, there were two
separate newspapers, The Fredericksburg Standard and
The Fredericksburg Radio Post. Therefore, any names
shown prior to October 1984 may be in either or both
of the papers.
-
More
significant in older issues but still occurring today,
the paper sometimes has a death section located elsewhere
in the paper (usually but not always in the first section)
that lists obituary information. The researcher should
search the entire paper if a name appears in this index
but is not found in the obvious obituary section.
-
Only
one obituary date is shown for each individual even
though some individuals appeared in the obituaries for
several issues. The reviewer should search both before
and after the listed date for the possibility of additional
information. The date of death will be the key to where
your search should begin.
-
The
obituaries may be viewed on microfilm at the Pioneer
Memorial Library, 115 West Main Street, Fredericksburg,
TX.
