The following obituaries and death notices from the Independent Newspapers were transcribed from the microfilm found in the NSGS library. You can see a catalog of the microfilm holdings of the NSGS on the NSGS website. (Note: these reels seem to be mislabeled. You can find them listed under the Wahoo Wasp.) A special Thank You!! goes to Linda Hedlund for transcribing them for us.

According to the newspaper inventory books at NSHS the Wahoo Independent existed from 16 Sep 1875 to 11 Nov 1886, when it became known as the Wahoo Wasp, until 29 Mar 1949 when the Wasp was absorbed by the Wahoo Democrat.

Transcriber's note: In places, the text from the newspaper is not readable on the microfilm. Linda has designated these areas with either a ? or __________.
