Virginia, Fluvanna County Colbert Funeral Home Records, 1929-1976

What is in This Collection?

This collection includes images of Colbert Funeral Home records from 1929–1976. The funeral home, located in Bremo Bluff, served residents of Fluvanna County and surrounding counties. Funeral records are financial ledgers or papers showing the costs involved with arranging the funeral of the individual. Funerals are generally held and recorded in the locality where the person resided or is buried. The name of the deceased, death date, and death place are quite reliable. Other information provided will only be as reliable as the informant’s knowledge or memory.

This collection contains two record types: Funeral records which are images of the ledger pages, and Index which is images of the index pages for each ledger except for the date range 1973–1976. Viewing the index record type allows you to locate the name you are looking for and find an approximate page number for each funeral entered in the ledger. The page number from the ledger will give you an approximate image number which can then be located in the Funeral record.

Additional records and/or images may be added to this collection in the future.
