obessed with the dead



My family thinks I'm not only obsessed but more than a little morbid because I've dragged shortcuts to Tennessee obituary pages from my Internet Explorer address bar to my desktop so I can remember to check them every so often. I like to read even those that don't seem to pertain to me whenever I can - especially if the person who died is anybody 80 years old or so. I'm always hopeful of finding family connections I didn't know I had. Of course, it would have been nice to have known them sooner.






Finding Roane Co, TN obituaries:

Kyker's home page at http://www.kykerfuneralhome.com links to current "in-house" obituaries [free access].

Current Roane Co obits can also be followed online, at Knox News. They print obituaries from many of Knox County's surrounding communites - Roane, yes, but others as well. The direct link to the no-cost access obituaries section is

http://www.knoxnews.com/kns/obituaries/

Their news archives (likely includes obits) goes back to 1990. Reasonable retrieval costs.

The Roane County News also has free current, though brief, obituaries and a decent search engine (especially if you use the "Advanced Search" option to search for documents older than two weeks). Their obits page is

http://www.roanecounty.com/obituaries/

Articles found at Roane County News via the search engine apparently can presently all be accessed for no fee.

Contact information [free access] for Tennessee funerals homes can be found at

http://www.us-funerals.com/funeral-homes-by-state/tennessee-funeral-directors.html

Roane County people are frequently mentioned online in obituaries of the following papers, too:

(1) The Oak Ridger, Oak Ridge, Anderson Co, TN [free access] at

http://www.oakridger.com/obituaries/index.shtml

Its search engine is great, too. I just accessed a birth announcement - free - from 1999.

(2) Cleveland Daily Banner (Cleveland, TN)

http://www.clevelandbanner.com/NF/omf/daily_banner/obit_beta.html

(if the above page link doesn't work, access the obituaries from the Banner's home page)

(3)The Daily Post Athenian in neighboring McMinn County sponsors free access obituary postings at

http://www.dpa.xtn.net/index.php?template=obits

It has an archives as well.

(4) Neigboring Cumberland Co's Crossivlle Chronicle's obits are at

http://www.crossville-chronicle.com/Chronicle/Obituary/obituary.html

The paper's obituary archives (from 1996 on) are easily accessed at

http://www.crossville-chronicle.com/Chronicle/Archives/obitarchives.html

If you don't want to do a year by year search, you can use Google's site search by entering into any Google search box the following:

site:www.crossville-chronicle.com roane

NOTE: Above, "roane" is for a county-wide search and can be replaced, of course, with any surname or term. Google's site search is a great timesavers for genealogists.

(5) Monroe Co's Democrat has obits online at

http://www.monroe.xtn.net/index.php?template=obits

Its obits archive search gave me results back to 1999. What shows up for free is a good chunk of the obit but may not be the whole thing - which you could, of course, purchase.

(6) The Daily Times in Maryville, Blount Co, has funeral notices and obits online at

http://www.thedailytimes.com/roundup.html

You can search the archives (up to 100 returns possible) from 1999 on.

[All free access]

(7) News Herald, Loudon Co - [free access] obits online at

http://www.loudon.xtn.net/index.php?template=obits

Archives search available, too. (Works pretty much the same as #5 above; they are on the same net.)







Go now. Raise the dead.

16 April 2004

opening day



What am I thinking?

1. I need a place to take notes that I can download when I go to the library , so why not?

2. I might actually have an idea of how best to use this format someday. . . .

3. I have missed having my very own little word space on the web.

Houston's relationship, if any, to "my" Giles line is unknown. He is found on the 1850 Roane Co, TN census with Susan. Since Houston Giles married Susan Carter in McMinn County in 1848, TN, and a Calvin Giles married an Elender Carter in the same county in 1845, I am inclined to think that perhaps not only that Calvin and Houston GILES might be related but that their wives Susan and Elender CARTER may be as well.

p 12

Montgomery, Mary age 79 b. Murray Co GA fa Samuel Brandon (Scotland) mo Mary Grans (Scotland) d. 1916 #458 -- update - annotated note (17 Jun 2005): all indications are the birthplaces listed for the parents of Mary Brandon Montgomery's parents are wrong. Census data consistently indicates that both Samuel Brandon and Mary Graves (not Grans) were born in America. Mack Majors was the informant for his grandmother Mary Brandon Montgomery's death certificate and not her daughter Rachel Montgomery Majors Kurtz, who was still living. My best guess is that Mack simply guessed about the birth information, not knowing that one day that it would have so many of us Brandon, Graves, Montgomery, and Majors descendants really stumped!

Keylon, Claude age 24 b. TN fa S.B. Keylon (TN) mo not given d. 1923 #257 [accidental gun shot] [preceding parenthetical information from the original]
