Is there a local genealogical society?
You betcha. The Mercer County Genealogy Society’s work includes alphabetized scrapbooks of obituaries from past decades and comprehensive tombstone listings for Mercer County cemeteries. The genealogy society is by far your best bet if you need a past obituary or any family-heritage research info. Expect to pay a modest fee to cover their trouble. Contact them at mcgenealogy@hotmail.com or through through Shenango Valley Community Library, where they meet and house some of their records.
