    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[&quot;Text: The records of Funk Mortuary, covering the period between September 7, 1916 and April 2, 1918. Funk Mortuary was founded in 1909 by T.D. Funk and George Shaffer. In 1911, Funk assumed full ownership; he operated the mortuary until its sale in 1953. Following a series of changes in ownership, the mortuary is today known as Warren-McElwain Mortuary and continues operations in Lawrence (Kan.). This record book contains information about decased persons prepared for burial at his mortuary and an alphabetized index. <br />
<br />
A majority of these persons died and were interred in Douglas County (Kan.), but other records indicate deaths in cities or townships in Kansas counties Shawnee, Cloud, Jackson, Johnson, and Sedgwick. Out-of-state records include deaths or interments in Los Angles [sic.] (Ca.); Carroll (Iowa); Chicago (Ill.); Denver (Co.); Indianola (Ill.); Excelser [sic.] Springs (Mo.); Fremont (Ill.); Washington, D.C.; and San Antoio [sic.] (Tx.). Note misspellings.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
