Deaths Abstracted from the Newport Independent, Newport, Jackson County, Arkansas for 1912 Contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by Mark Williamson <mwillia3@midsouth.rr.com>. ************************************************************************ USGENWEB ARCHIVES NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by any other organization or persons.

During this time period, the Newport Daily Independent was published Monday through Saturday, except for major holidays, and the Newport Weekly Independent was published Fridays. The Newport Weekly Independent published almost all of the same news articles and notes as those found in the preceding week's Daily Independents. Death abstracts were taken from the Newport Daily Independent whenever possible. Issues of the Daily Independent from early January 1912 through March 1913 were apparently destroyed before they could be microfilmed, but microfilm of the Weekly Independent exists from those periods. In addition, death entries were checked against the names published by James Logan Morgan in his book "Deaths as Found in the Newport Weekly Independent 1901-1917." Only deaths occurring in Arkansas or with Arkansas connections are presented in this file. Multiple entries of the same death have been identified when additional or conflicting information is given in subsequent entries. Two issues of the Newport Weekly Independent were identified as published but apparently destroyed before they could be microfilmed. These issues were dated: 9-Aug-12 and 27-Dec-12. That means that there exists no Jackson County newspaper microfilm at all of those weeks. In addition, the 27-Sep-12 issue of the Weekly Independent appears to be incompletely microfilmed. Abbreviations and Explanations of Headings: ------------------------------------------- Type (if not a "formal" obituary): w - this entry was taken from the microfilm of the Newport Weekly Independent of the stated issue date B - this death is entered in James Logan Morgan's book "Deaths as Found in the Newport Weekly Independent 1901-1917," but I was unable to find the mention of the death in the Weekly Independent! N - death mentioned in community notes (aka "local gossip") column S - death mentioned in story (usually a fatal accident or a murder) C - "Card of Thanks", no other mention of death found M - "In memory of", no other mention of death found AF - story of death of active member of Armed Forces * - date on (daily) paper was incorrectly published - the actual paper date is identified here Given Name: may include (maiden name) or (person's title or rank) or (person's sex if unclear) or [previous married name] Died On: when a death is mentioned in community notes, the date of death is often my best guess. Depending on when the community notes were submitted to the newspaper, the actual death may have occurred a week (or more) before or after. Residence: residence if different from place of death Rel / Rel Name: Sp - surviving spouse P - surviving parent(s) (if no surviving spouse) Wd - name of deceased spouse as given in obituary (Only the first name of relative is given when the surname is the same as of the deceased.) Funeral Homes: No funeral homes 'per se' existed and no undertaker records are known to exist from this time period. Drummond's was the principal undertaker in the town of Newport. Occasionally a Masonic order or other group was mentioned as being in charge of the funeral, and these are identified as given. ************************************************************************ Paper Date Type Last Name Given Name Age Died On Place of Death Residence Rel Rel Name Buried At Funeral Home ---------- ---- ------------ ------------------------- ---- ------------- -------------------- ------------------ --- ----------------------- --------------------------- --------------------- 04-Oct-12 wS Alexander Fanny 45 30-Sep-12 Brinkley 23-Feb-12 w Altman W.
