This index covers obituaries from the Knoxville Journal from 1885 to 1906. Information included is surname, date the obituary ran and the page number. Also included can be given name or names, age, or county/state of death. There are many obituaries that do not include first names; these obituaries usually have another identifier, for instance, Mrs., Mr., child, infant, daughter, or son. Also, there are many obituaries of people who died out of county or out of state but had a connection to Knoxville. Please contact McClung to request a copy of the obituary. There is a $3.00 fee for up to three obituaries, which can come from either of the two obituary databases.
