Both of the obits that you seek were published in the Rhinelander Daily News; the index is online at http://wigenweb.org/oneida/robitindex.html and directions on how to order the obit. Of course you can look it up on microfilm at the WHS in Madison. These obits may also be in the Vilas County News-Review.

Sorry but I can't answer your second question; most photos are put online by volunteers and each have their own preferences or criteria. Where did you see these photos published?

good luck with your research
