Funeral Card Friday - New Programs Added to Database!

New programs have been added to my (Mostly) African American Funeral Programs database.  Surnames added today are as follows:

Arrendell

Baker

Blacknall

Blockson

Brown

Casey

Dent

Holden

Leonard

Littlejohn

McDowell

Ridley

Williams

Walker

Today's featured program is that of Mr. King A. Williams.

As always, I am happy to scan and email copies of any of the funeral programs in the database.  All you have to do is email me at yarsan@aol.com with the name of the deceased, or make your request in the comments section, below.  Just be sure to provide me with your email address!  Also, in some cases, I have multiple copies of a program, and will happily mail out an original, if requested. 

Funeral programs are often rich with genealogical data!  Be sure to browse my entire database for surnames of interest.  You might just find an ancestor waiting there!

Happy ancestor hunting!

More Funeral Programs in African American Database

More funeral programs have been added to my database of "African American Funeral Programs".  Yes, I've decided to change the name of the database. Since it seems that all of the programs I have at this time are those of African Americans, it seems to be the best name to give it!

I've also decided to start listing the surnames of each additional set of programs I add, when I announce them on the blog.  Here are the surnames that I've added this evening:

Alston

Branch

Burson

Carey

Fain

Green

Harris

Hawkins

Perry

Hayes

Perry

Prescod

Thomas

Williams

Yarborough

 

The entire database can be accessed by clicking on this link: African American Funeral Programs . As a reminder, I will happily provide any information you'd like from any of the programs in the database, or, if you'd like, I will scan any program and send it to you, electronically.  

 

Please spread the word about this database.  My collection continues to grow, and I will continue to add to this database, at least weekly!

 

Thanks!

Renate
