It is to Mrs. Frankie that I owe thanks for these treasures! Most of these obituaries (which are clippings) have no dates on them. They were probably taken from the Monroe News, one of the parent newspapers of the modern News-Star or the Progressive Age, a Ruston paper. Most date from the 1890-1910 years, which are now lost to time. These newspapers were never preserved. That makes these obituaries even more valuable to researchers. Whenever possible, dates and information clarifying the obituaries have been taken from cemetery indexes at the Ouachita Parish Public Library. Miss Jennie Mills, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.C. Mills, of Logtown, who died Tuesday, was buried in the Monroe cemetery, funeral services being held in the First Methodist Church. Additional Comments: Penciled in at the top of the clipping is the date September 22, 1902. Jennie is buried in the Old Monroe City Cemetery, with the dates on her headstone reading: August 1, 1878 - September 23, 1902. Her parents John C. and Lou C. Mills are buried nearby.
