I am new to this list. I am trying to find an obituary for Harold Brown, born June 1933 and died Santa Fe Springs, CA, 22 Aug 1997, according to SSDI. I know that Alameda County has a County Library that offers a lookup service online for obits...is there a similar service for Los Angeles County? thanks for the help, Liz of BC, Canada
