Synopsis

This volume opens with four pages of undated clippings transcribed from the scrapbook of Rev. S. A. Agnew. The remainder of this volume is compiled from notices which appeared in the Associate Reformed Presbyterian from the beginning of its publication in 1867 through the end of 1888. Only a few issues have survived for the period between 1878 and 1884. These notices include people who lived in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, Illinois, Missouri, and Texas. Death notices are important for this period, not only because of the details of the lives of the individuals, including place of birth and former residences, but because during the difficult years of the reconstruction after the Civil War, many people could not afford tombstones and erected wooden markers that have not survived. Marriage notices are especially important for South Carolina since marriage licenses were not required in South Carolina until July 1, 1911.

Death notices generally include the name of the deceased, date of death, location at death, name(s) of parent(s), and name of spouse; many death notices also include additional information such as cause of death and/or biographical tidbits. Marriage notices generally include the date of marriage, the name of the official, the names of the bride and groom, town of residence; marriage notices may also include additional information such as the names of the bride's parents. A full-name index adds to the value of this work.
