Deaths in 1911
in the
City of Muscatine, Iowa

The list below is from an article in this newspaper issue, "The Muscatine Journal", Muscatine, Iowa, Monday, January 1, 1912. This is a quote from the newspaper article: "The harvest of the Grim Reaper during 1911 in the city of Muscatine was lighter than for any year in almost a score of years. For this Muscatine is thankful and the New Year, it is the wish of everyone, will bring the angel of death to but a small number of homes. The health of the city was better during the past twelve months than for many years. Not a single epidemic was reported and but few deaths occurred as a result of contagious ills." As you look at this list which is in order by date, remember this is for the city of Muscatine and not for the entire county of Muscatine. Also, Dave Dunston has linked all known obituaries to names listed below, so any surnames in blue is a clickable link to their obituary. If anyone has an obituary for a name below that hasn't been found yet, please send it to me, Lynn McCleary , so I can put it online.
