FolkLib Index - IBMA Obituary Index

      This page is an Index to the Obituaries published in the Over Jordan column of International Bluegrass published by the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA). As I only joined IBMA in 1994, only those issues from 1994 to date are indexed here. Names are listed here alphabetically, not necessarily in the order they appear in the magazine.
      I am not a Public Library, so I cannot provide either the text of copyrighted obituaries or photocopies. Check with your local library for public sources of these magazines. Better yet, to support their continued publication, Join IBMA and purchase back issues.

none = there was no "Over Jordan" column in this issue
?? = this issue is missing or lost (I have moved six times since 1996)
