| THIS INDEX IS ONLY FOR NEWSPAPERS PRINTED WITHIN CAMBRIA COUNTY!! |
| If your great Aunt Agatha was born in Cambria County, but died in Florida, with her only
obituary printed in a Florida newspaper, we will NOT include her on this index. |
| Needless to say, this list is not all-inclusive. We're (slowly) gathering obits from
other pages within the Cambria County website and adding them. If you have any obituaries you would
like to have added to this listing, please send a typed copy of the obit. Be sure to include the
name of the newspaper and the publication date. A scan is not necessary unless the obituary is dated
before 1924 and you want it included in the index. |
| The original data from this list (1993-2006) came from data that was contributed by
Lisa Baker, Martha Humenik, Cathy Makara & Norine Swisher. |
| Name: |
| Name as it appears in the obituary. Note that we will include a maiden name for a
female if it is included or implied (gives a full name of a brother). If there is a
link (the name is underlined), there will be more information on this obituary available
on these pages. |
|
| Type: |
| blank |
An index entry only. Just a pointer to where an obituary is available. |
| B |
Both a full transcription and a scan of the obituary. This is only available for obituaries
appearing in the newspaper before 1924. |
| E |
Extract only. Full obituary is not available here, probably due to copyright restrictions
(the obituary appeared in the newspaper after 1923). Names and dates have been extracted from
the obituary. |
| T |
Full transcription of the obituary. This is only available if the obituary appeared in the
newspaper before 1924. |
|
| Age: |
| Age as it appears in the newspaper article. |
|
| Death Date: |

article (newspaper was printed on a Thursday, and said "died Tuesday", we may list the
death date). |
|
| Obit Date: |
| Date the obituary appeared in the paper. In some cases, in our original index (1993-2006), the date
appearing here may actually be a death date, and, the obituary may appear in the paper that day
or up to a few days after this date. |
|

available newspaper names and codes see: List of Newspapers. If we need to add another Cambria
