These records cover the time frame of 1810-1857 and contains about 2,900 deaths taken from 20 newspapers. This book sequels two previous books from the same author covering the same period (MO23 & MO24). This book differs from the other two volumes in that: some, primarily adults, are from papers not available for the earlier books while the remaining balance of the book deals with children previously omitted due to space limitations. Counties from which these papers came from: Pike County Missouri;Cooper County Missouri;Howard County Missouri;Chariton County Missouri;Lewis County Missouri;Boone County;Missouri;Marion County Missouri;Clay County Missouri;Callaway County Missouri;Jackson County Missouri;Cape Girardeau County Missouri;Cole County Missouri;Lafayette County Missouri;St. Clair County Missouri;Platte County Missouri;Andrew County Missouri;Greene County Missouri;Buchanan County Missouri;Benton County Missouri;Grundy County Missouri. The records cover a long period, from baby Harriet Penrose who died in St. Louis in Feb. 1810 to deaths on both sides of the state (Kansas City, St.Louis) and numerous places between, in 1857. Most of the children and many women could not be found in a census; they were born and died before 1850, or born before 1850 and died young.
