BIBLE RECORDS The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) collection The DAR Bible records are partially indexed by E. Kay Kirkham, An Index to Some Family Records of the Southern States (Logan, Utah: Everton Publishers, 1979; FHL book 973 D22kk v. 1; fiche 6089183).
Statewide, regional, and county histories often have biographical sections that can be very helpful. A representative biographical encyclopedia Helpful indexes available at the Family History Library and the St. Augustine Historical Society are the Biographical Card Index (on 18 FHL films beginning with 967146) and the alphabetical Biographical and Genealogical File (on 9 FHL films beginning with 967703).
The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) collection contains tombstone inscriptions from Florida cemeteries. This collection is described in the “Genealogy” section of this outline. Another important collection of cemetery inscriptions is E. H. Hayes, Cemetery Records of Florida, 9 vols. (Salt Lake City: Genealogical Society, 1946-66; FHL book 975.9 V3c; films 874012-3).
The collection Cemetery Records in Florida and Georgia is on FHL films 228823-28. This index is arranged by county and gives information about births, deaths, parents, and spouses. A directory of cemetery records that lists the names and locations of cemeteries in Florida is on FHL film 1206385.
The Family History Library also has 35 microfilms of records from several Tampa funeral homes. These are listed in the catalog under FLORIDA, HILLSBOROUGH, TAMPA - VITAL RECORDS.
