Obituaries, obituaries, obituaries

I've been combing through the Mower County Transcript newspaper on the Library of Congress Chronicling America website. It has an excellent search capability. I've been looking for any obituaries, burial or death notices for Six Mile Grove, Woodbury, Rose Creek Enterprise (aka Varco), Cedar City, Mona, and Pleasant Hill cemeteries. I found and transcribed a few hundred, adding them to findagrave.com. I'll also keep a copy to add to my yet-to-be-built database of people. The St. Ansgar Enterprise Journal also has a pretty good archive up on the St. Ansgar library's website. It has many newer obituaries that I haven't yet started to sort through. Lastly, I added all the recent obituaries for the Austin Daily Herald and the Rochester Post Bulletin that I had previously scraped onto lylealumni.com.
