Index to Death Notices in the Crystal Lake Herald (1921-1940)
The following indexes represent a list of deceased individuals whose notice of death appeared in the weekly Herald newspaper. Information was gleaned from obituaries, death notices, police reports, and newspaper articles and is not necessarily limited to residents of Crystal Lake and/or Nunda Township. It was not unusual for a death notice to appear months and even years after the event, particularly in the case of war dead. Researchers should scan several indexes when searching for the name of a specific individual and look for variant spellings within each index.
