Deaths and Obituary Notices from the Southern Christian Advocate. 1867-1878 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780788427589)

The Southern Christian Advocate was a primary source of news and information for the Methodist Conferences of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida during the period covered in this volume. This work focuses specifically on death and obituary notices, which are especially important for this period, not only for providing valuable details about the lives of the individuals such as place of birth and former residences, but also because these records contain names of people who weren't able to afford tombstones and therefore may not appear in other records. These notices serve as a record of the lives and contributions of former members of the Methodist community in this area. A full-name index completes this work.
