This section of the website is devoted to the obituaries of our ancestors and relatives. Since the implementation of the
changes affecting the query and obituary boards, many counties are creating obituary sections in their websites for contibutions of
obits. Having a place for your contributed obituaries within the website will add yet another resource for our visitors/researchers,
and perhaps be more convenient within the website. We will strive to make ours unique by offering the option to include
photographs of the individuals.

If you would like to contribute obituaries to this collection, please follow these guidelines:
- Submitted obituaries must have a Chickasaw County IA connection.
- Transcribe the text, as printed; although please type all surnames in uppercase, as is customary in genealogical work.
- If there are errors that you would like to point out and provide corrected information for, please reference them at the end of
the obit, in "Contributor's Notes".
- The text may be entered into your email message, or in a separate text file, as an attachment to the message.
- Photographs are encouraged, if you have a picture of the deceased, please include that with the obituary (as a separate file,
in most any format).
- Provide the name and date of the newspaper. If you are not sure, indicate that also.
- If you would like to include "Contributor’s Notes", please label and place this at the end of the obit text.
This could contain any extra information you would like to share or clarification of proven errors in the obit.
- The last entry on your page will be for:
Contributed By: your name
Email Address: your email address
