The Burial Permits include many spelling errors. Spellings will often differ from the entry in the Death Notice. As a result, when checking a name use all variant spellings. All dates listed are for the first date that the notice appeared in the St. Louis Post Dispatch, not the date of death. Death Notice entries are made only once, subsequent listings for the same person are not included.
Every effort is made to be as complete as possible.
However, due to poor quality in the microfilm and missing pages a small percent of the names listed are not available. In 1881 the Death Notices generally appear on page 5. To the St. Louis Obituary Index 1881 S - Z Back to the Year Index F Fach, Charles Sr.
