Obituary index for BERESFORD REPUBLIC, Vol. 31, 1924 The following is an index of obituaries which were published in the "Beresford Republic" in the year 1924. The paper is weekly and is published every Thursday in Beresford, South Dakota. The first 26 issues of 1924 were listed as No. 27-52 of Volume 29, the remainder were No. 1-25 of Volume 30. However, this numbering scheme was inconsistent with that of issues published during the paper's earliest years. And, many years later, an editor noticed this problem and began a numbering scheme based on that of those earliest issues; but, the newer scheme started the volumes at the beginning of the calendar years. For purposes of simplicity, the volume number listed for this index is based on the later numbering scheme. Because of the inconsistencies of the volume and issue numbers, publication dates are more important. Any information not listed in the fields below was not provided in the original obituaries. In cases where the date of birth is not given, the age at the time of death is given in that field instead. In 1924, Beresford, SD still had a second weekly newspaper called "Beresford News," also published every Thursday. It is worth noting that both papers published different obituaries for the same individuals. And, the obituary from one paper sometimes contained information that was absent in the obituary from the other newspaper. And on occasion, one paper published obituaries that were absent from the other paper. However, the following index was compiled only from data found in the "Beresford Republic." Some married women were listed only by their husbands names. In those cases, the husband's name is listed in the first name field inside [ ]. Some misspellings may have come from the original published obituaries. As a rule, less formal death notices tended to lack any detailed biographical data on the individual. Therefore, formal obituaries for individuals were indexed here whenever possible; but when none were available, the less formal notices were indexed instead.
