The Baltzer Meyer Historical Society has
copies of the funeral records of the Felton Funeral Home which operated
in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. The records cover the years
from 1918 to 1985. Over the years, the Felton Family provided funeral
services in the Pennsylvania communities of Greensburg, Blairsville,
and New Alexandria.
To assist researchers in locating records of deceased relatives,
we have provided an index which shows the name of the deceased as
well as the collection period in which the funeral record is contained.
There are almost 5,300 listings in the index and a copy of that
index is provided here.
The records are indexed alphabetically by surname. Click on one
of the links below to get to the section of the alphabet where your
surname of interest would be found. A separate browser window will
open.
In the new window you may search for your particular record by
either
- Using the "Edit, Find" feature on your web browser
to enter specific surnames or keywords; or
- By scrolling through the file.

Some names appear more than once. In some instances the records
are for entirely different people. In other instances they are for
the same person but recorded on different forms. All forms are included
as the questions vary somewhat between forms.
If you are interested in receiving a copy of a record(s), please
complete the Request
Form for Funeral Record and follow the instructions noted
thereon. This is a PDF form, and you'll need Adobe
Acrobat Reader to access it.
The following three records were never completed by the funeral
director: Justina M. Fotta, John F. Kiley, and Charles J. Meyers.
These names have been flagged with a footnote icon so that an alert
message appears when the mouse passes over it.
