Have you checked out the Genealogy portion of our website? If you get a chance be sure to take a look, this is a work in progress and we have a lot of data to collect yet. The obituaries that are currently indexed at the library are just about all entered and then we will begin gathering data that we don’t have, if you find that you have obituaries that are not in the database please send them to us, either by email, Debbie Sturman or to PO Box 510, Lusk, WY 82225. In our recent article, Anne Whitehead’s name was not included as a volunteer who has helped with this genealogy project. Without volunteers this project would not be where it is, thank you all!
