Necrological Record of the Old Year
Transcribed and contributed by Susan Henderson (DaveSu1611@cs.com)  23 October 1999

This is a necrological listing of 1926 for the areas of Colby and surrounding towns - I believe it is to represent a collection of everyone that died that the news was published in the Colby Tribune. -Susan
