Since there have been a number of queries about Tampa Bay area obits, here are two sites which have ongoing projects to put online items like obits, articles, etc., from Tampa Bay area newspapers. The Tampa-Hillsborough Online Resource (THOR) is part of the Tampa-Hillsborough Co. Public Library site. Although the index provides only minimal info, it may be enough for you to identify relatives. If your not in the Tampa area, try using the interlibrary loan system to get copies of the promising ones. Also, if your not in the local calling area of the library, you will want to download TELNET to use THOR. The instructions, on THOR's home page, are good. Once your in THOR, select "8. Trails ..." and then "1. Quick Search ...". One other thing, THOR is a UNIX based system so your mouse is virtually useless. You will probably muck things up the first few times -- I did to point of having shut it down several times. <A HREF="http://www.angelfire.com/fl2/tbhistory/index.html">Tampa Bay History & Genealogy.</A> http://www.angelfire.com/fl2/tbhistory/index.html <A HREF="http://scfn.thpl.lib.fl.us/ ">Tampa-Hillsborough Co.
