The Obituary Index was developed through the work of researchers who have researched their ancestors in the Newspapers on Microfilm Collection. Our index does not contain every obituary or death notice in every newspaper we have in our collection.

If you would like to add citations to the Obituary Index, please contact staff of the Newspapers on Microfilm Collection.
