Amy, go to the KERR Message Board on RootsWeb. I've posted 12 obits there, including a James who died in 1921. Do an "advanced search" on the Board. Enter in the "by author" box: John OBRIEN and all my posting will come up. A date of death is needed for an obit lookup. You may need to obtain a death certificate. Here is the info if you're interested: The City of Kansas City, Missouri maintains birth and death records at the Health Department.

John, Do you know how far back the States of Missouri and Kansas recorded birth and death certificates? I know the Catholic Church sometimes will have records dating before it became the law to record births and deaths, and every state is different.
