Did not work for me. No matter what date I put in, it would tell me to enter a date mm/dd/yyyy Anita Reply with original message This site will give you vital information from an obituary. However I am not sure exactly how far back they have listings. It did not pick up my mother who died in 1962 but did have my step mom who died 3 months ago and my dad who died in 1982. Hope it helps in your research.                                                 http://arrangeonline.com/obituary/search.asp Good luck in your search Kathy ====
