Collection context

Summary

Abstract:
The Zwack and Sons Funeral Home was established in 1894 by John Zwack. In the beginning the business name was Zwack Funeral Home. Then in 1916 his son joined the business changing the name to Zwack & Son Funeral Home, then his other son (Raymond) joined the business, and they changed the name to Zwack & Sons Funeral Home. At some point in time, possibly between 1990 and 2010 the Zwack Funeral Home was taken over by the Scott & Barbieri funeral Home chain , but they continue to keep their original name. This collection contains bills receipts, cemetery plot deeds, and receipt confirmation cards.
