in both newspapers but the fact of cremation was NOT always in both papers.

There were 12 donations of the remains to Science
It should be noted that obituaries for persons whose bodies were donated to science
may have appeared in both newspapers but the fact of donation was NOT n ecessarily IN both papers.

There were 304 obituaries that did not clearly list a final burial location.
Many only listed a service at the funeral home with no reference to burial.
There were, however, a significant number that listed a church as the location of a religious funeral service.
Many of these churches do have church cemeteries, which could be interpreted as the burial location.
Such an interpretation was NOT made.
