I would have missed this entirely.<br /><br />—ReedReednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10890559.post-52512178655856430212012-02-22T08:53:12.815-08:002012-02-22T08:53:12.815-08:00Thanks so much for this link.

I knew an extended family member had died in a car vs train accident during the 1908-1918 time period, but beyond a few articles in the Trib, couldn't find much. The Chicago Examiner had three articles - including a photo of the deceased family member. Hope they make more available from an earlier time period!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
