The McDonald County Library Obituary Database Project

ALL OBITUARIES are available to search in a simple text format here.

(To make it easier to search, this database has vital information only… Names, maiden names, dates, cemeteries, and newspaper of record.
If you need a copy of the entire, original obituary, please contact the library staff.)

We’re very excited about this project, as it makes searching for information about your McDonald county area ancestors much, much easier.
