Anyone doing document lookups at the Muhlenberg County, KY courthouse?

Anyone doing "on-foot" lookups / photos at the local cemeteries in Muhlenberg Co., KY?

Anyone doing lookups and copies from the local Newspaper obits in Muhlenberg Co., KY?

If you charge a FEE that is OK.

Here's what I'm looking for:

1
Copy of the newspaper obit for Ben Rice Shaver, died Feb, 24, 1999 (in Muhlenberg Co., KY to the best of my knowledge).

2
Photos of cemetery stones for Ben Rice Shaver & wife Virginia Shaver. (believed to be buried in Evergreen Cemetery). Ben died 1999, Virginia died 1991?

3
Copy of the marriage license for Ben Rice Shaver to Virginia Sweatt, June 16, 1934, believed to be in Muhlenberg Co., KY.

4
Copy of the newspaper obit for (Lillie) Maud Shaver, died Mar. 17, 1966 (in Greenville, Muhlenberg Co., KY to the best of my knowledge).

5
Copy of the newspaper obit for Robert Andrew Shaver, died Mar. 25, 1914 (in Greenville, Muhlenberg Co., KY to the best of my knowledge).

6
Copy of the marriage license for Robert Andrew Shaver & Maud Rice, April 26, 1900, believed to be in Muhlenberg Co., KY.

Need a good copy from the book A History Of Muhlenberg, Some Of The Frist-Comers of the Peter and Nancy Shaver photos, page 27 I believe.

13
Photos of Peter & Nancy's cemetery stones. Not sure where these stones might be but speculate in either Evergreen, the Shaver, or other cemetery. Peter died 1866, Nancy died 1878.

14
Copy of the newspaper obit for Virginia S. Shaver (wife of Ben Rice Shaver, No 1 above), died Dec. 08, 1991 (in Louisville - Jefferson Co., KY to the best of my knowledge).
------------------------------------------

I understand that some of these documents may not exist.
If anyone already has any of these documents or can gather them for me I'd be most appreciative. Let me know of your fee and which documents you can obtain.

Thanks,

Special Note:
Ben Rice Shaver was very instrumental back in the early 1990s with helping me gather all the necessary documentation I needed for my SAR membership. He has since passed through this world and I hold a special fondness for his particular lineage.
