books of clippings to Vivian Johnsen.
ATTENTION GENEALOGIST: We do have a large collection of funeral folders, obituary clippings, wedding clippings and anniversary clippings that have been saved from the news papers since 1912 up to today. If you are looking for a family name or person, please e-mail me (put WLMuseum in the subject line) and I will search the indexes of the files that we have completed to date to see if we have something on that family and will let you know. (We have about over 1000 done and 2000 to be finished yet!) If I find something that you want a copy of, I will instruct you to send a self addressed, stamped envelope and $5 a copy*. I will then send the copies to you.
*This is a donation to the museum to further our collection.
Clark County Cemetery Records can be found on line: Clark County Cemetery Records
If you have funeral cards or family information that you would care to contribute to our collection, we would like to hear from you.
Willow Lake Community Museum and Library is a non-profit organization.
