| Abstract | From the introduction: "This index is based on information extracted from the original hardbound copies of the German Methodist newspaper, Der Christliche Apologete, that are stored at the Cincinnati History Library and Archives (CHLA) located in the Cincinnati Museum Center. Articles contained . . . death notices reported from fellow Methodist ministers from around the various German Methodist congregations in the United States. . . . This index contains death notice extractions from the first issue in January 1839 through December 1899 . . . over 26,800 deaths were reported and published before 1899 throughout the United States, with the majority of them from the Midwest area." Entries contain (if provided in the original German) the name, date of death and date of notice, age of person, the newspaper page on which the notice was printed, maiden names for married women, place of death, and the city of birth. |
