End of Pages.
These deaths were written in a file found in the Tucumcari mortuary in Quay County, New Mexico around 1905. The file was hand written. Many of the deceased had lived in the mining area of Lincoln County. This was typed by a volunteer who used a ? to indicated hard to read entry, and ( ) to indicate personal notes. Resource was submitted by Ginger Byrum. Please report any corrections to us. Do not use this list for data. Ask us to check the original record for one name you are interested in. 
On Page thirteen, the method of recording changed as did the hand writing and spelling. Date of death was followed by day of burial, cause of death, attending physician, casket style, price of casket and other information. Prior to this, only one Page was used per entry, thereafter, each Page had two parts, part "a" and part "b". I rearranged some Pages, connecting each Page b with its correct part a.
I have reason to believe that this "booklet" was once in a loose leaf folder, and it was assembled into a booklet with some Page numbers hand stamped on Pages after the book was assembled. That file was obtained by Willie Kelt Bilbo, who in turn, donated it to a library.
K. P. Cemetery means Knights of Pythias Cemetery, later named Cedervale Cemetery (or White Oaks Historical Cemetery) about the time of statehood. Texas Park referred to a large area--where many Texans settled, and not to a town per se. I have shown date of death and burial date thus, June 4//6. In a few cases, the 1895 and 1900 censuses may be viewed to find relatives of the deceased mentioned in the file. Keep in mind that the one who paid for the funeral may be related or an employer.   C. W. Barnum 2005
