Obits

Joseph Roberts has over 7000 blood descendants scattered across the United States and around the world.  We are out of touch with many of these descendants.  We hope to reconnect with some through published obituaries.  Here we will post name & death date of any obituary sent to us from anywhere.  PLEASE NOTE THAT WE CAN ONLY WORK WITH JPG FILES.  I hope to be able to work with pdf files later, but for right now I'm not smart enough.  We would also be interested in posting obits of any related families.  We have many related families.  If you send it to us, we will post it.  On this page we will place the name and date of death in chronological order.  The name/date is also a link that will take you to the actual obituary.  A picture of the actual obituary will be permanently located in the photo gallery in the obituary folder.

We do NOT assume responsibility for catching every death with subsequent obit.  We will catch what we can, but we are depending on you to send us obits of those relatives you are aware of.  Thanks in advance for your hel
