DEATH Genealogical Abstracts From Arnprior Newspapers to 1934 This publication was created by volunteers. Copyright © Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives 2018 Published by ARNPRIOR AND MCNAB/BRAESIDE ARCHIVES 21B Madawaska Street, Arnprior, Ontario, K7S 1R6 www.adarchives.org 613-623-0001 Available only in electronic format. Introduction Contents and Organization – 1. The abstracts have been arranged in three sections - Births, Marriages, and Deaths, with this being the Deaths section. With the addition of the 1934 abstracts in 2018, there are now 9,500 death entries. 2. The abstracts are sorted alphabetically by surname. 3. Where the information is available, each entry contains the name or names, place of residence of those concerned, the date and place of the event, the cause of death, and the age of the deceased. 4. The spelling of surnames and places is as printed in the newspaper, even when apparently incorrect. Therefore, try variations on the accepted spelling when searching. 5. At the end of each abstract, the date and page number of the newspaper is given in parentheses. All entries are from The Arnprior Chronicle, unless another newspaper is cited. Abbreviations used are: AN – The Arnprior News WM – The Arnprior Watchman AG – The Almonte Gazette 6. Following the newspaper citation there may be one or more asterisks (*). a. * - Indicates there is additional information that is not included in the abstract, e.g. names of other relatives and occupations. b. ** - Indicates that the information was found in an original paper copy BUT NO further information exists in the newspaper. c. *** - Indicates that the information was found in an original paper copy AND there is additional information that is not included in the abstract. (Note: not on microfilm.) Any additional information can be obtained by looking at the digitized copy, to where there is a link next to each index entry. If the issue has not been digitized, contact or visit the Arnprior & McNab/Braeside Archives. Where Information was Found – The newspapers at times had a special section for notices of Births, Marriages and Deaths. However, genealogical items were also found throughout the paper under other headings which include "In Memoriam" and "Notice to Creditors." Thus, relevant information may be located in an unexpected portion of the newspaper. In addition, the paper frequently printed a column which repeated birth, marriage, and death notices that had originally appeared in earlier issues. For example, a death event from June 1881 may be printed in the issue for June 25, 1931 in a column headed "Fifty Years Ago.” The date given for the event in the abstract would indicate this, e.g. "In June 1881." Geographical Area Covered - The geographical area covered by these abstracts goes far beyond the town of Arnprior. The items come from all parts of Renfrew County, the counties of Lanark and Carleton to the south and east, across the Ottawa River in Pontiac County, Quebec, and from many parts of the U.S.A. and Canada, especially the prairie provinces, to which many former residents of the region had emigrated.
