Alphabetically by surname, these files consist of newspaper announcements of anniversaries, marriages, and obituaries*; correspondence between researchers and staff; family Bible records; family history notes; and other miscellaneous items pertaining to a given surname.
The digital files that appear here represent only a portion of the physical files stored at Mennonite Life. There are many files and folders available in our library that are not available online; conversely, there are some files online that are not available in hard copy at the library.
*The obituaries that appear in the surname files are not included in the online obituary indexes and may duplicate obituaries found elsewhere on this site.
