Some random and some not-so-random thoughts on family history.

Thriller Thursday? Or What Happened to the Rest?

Don't get me wrong, I am happy to have the obituaries from the Michigan Obituaries, 1820-2006 on Family Search. It has helped me tremendously.  It has also confused me.

For example,  the following obituary for Richard C. Percival, an extremely distant relative, which was published when? Where? And what happened to the rest of it? Sometimes, when you go to the next image in the series, you might find the rest of the obituary. Not so in this case. What Funeral Home are they talking about? The cemetery was found on Find-a-Grave. How on earth do I cite this?

Gah!
