Books by Visiting Lecturer David (Osaka University) Roberts

This book offers researchers an alphabetical listing of abstracts of reported deaths taken from a New York newspaper, the Long Islander from the years 1878-1890. Entries are listed in alphabetical order by full name. In most cases, the age of the person at death is included, as well as the date, cause of death, place of death, and surviving family members. Also included in many of the entries is the date the information appeared in the paper. The book also includes a section giving more detail to the counties that are mentioned in the entries to help guide the researcher. An index lists names 'buried' within the entries.
