"Please note that I have tried to copy the names exactly as they appeared in the newspaper. I did put the names in alphabetical order to make it easier to search. If you feel there is an error, I do have the microfilm and can go back and double check for you. I'm human and like most other folks, have been known to make a mistake from time to time... This information appeared in the newspaper in 1893. I have no idea if it is accurate or complete." Cathy Barnes
