Vital Records and Obituaries
Vigo County, Indiana
This
Site is part of
The INGenWeb
Project
Obituaries
The former Vigo County Site had
a nice collection of obituaries that were submitted over time. Because
email addresses change, and the format of the submissions was not
consistant, it was necessary to combine all of the information into one
file that can be searched.
It can be found here.
Historical Obituary
In 1853 George Adams Smith died of consumption. He was born in Terra
Haute, Indiana, and learned the trade of his Father a brick mason. He
was too weak, physically, to labor successfully at that, and quitting
it, commenced the study of law. With only an ordinary common school
education, he made rapid advances in his profession and had he lived
would have attained eminence in it. He was an indefinable student, a
clear and logical thinker, and exulted in the acquisition of knowledge
especially in that of his profession. He was a good, pure and an honest
man. The people of Butte lost one of then-brightest ornaments, and
every member of the Bar a friend, when they were compelled to murmur
their farewell over his grave.
