  • Newspaper Clippings

    There are numerous newspaper clippings of by or about Caperton's in the Caperton.info Archives, some dating back to the early 1800's. I have started to scan and place this collection on the site. I have placed both a transcription of the article and a scan of the actual clipping as well as the Henry number where possible. Some of these relate to family history and some are simply interesting reading.

  • Caperton Obituaries

    This section of the Caperton.info Archives contains extractions of obituaries of Caperton's. This collection is separate from the 'Deaths' section in that this is a collection of actual obituaries transcribed, rather than just a listing of individual death dates. Obituaries frequently include the surviving members of the family, which may be key in identifying the particular individual. Where possible a scanned image of the obituary is linked. If you have a copy of an obituary that you would like added to Caperton.info please email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
