goal of the database is to include all obituaries that have appeared
in the publication This Week in Texas, focusing especially on the
"AIDS years" of 1982 through 2000, but beginning in 1975.
And I estimate progress to be about 99% complete. Significant data
from other publications, like the Montrose Voice, Houston Voice,
Dallas Voice, etc, are also included, and more will be added as
available. This project was developed by JD Doyle, and could not have been done without the cooperation of the member organizations of Houston ARCH, the Houston Area Rainbow Collective History. Its member organizations (especially GCAM) very graciously allowed access to publications in their holdings. |
