INTRODUCTION:

This is a master index of over 17,000 records found in the funeral home record books found at the Cornerstone Genealogical Society Library at Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. Included in the index is each individual’s name, the funeral home book in which the record is found and the page or reference number of the record.

The amount of information found in the records of the various funeral homes varies greatly.
