I can't get to New Orleans. I just yesterday, found the death date and burial place of my g-g-g-grandfather, after searching for YEARS. He died in New Orleans. His wife, who died later, did have an obit published in both french and english newspapers. Can someone suggest a way I could find out if he had an obit anywhere? So I could ask someone to get it for me. :>) Thanks, Cheramie

The New Orleans Public Library has a card index that has listed the date of death for a person and where in the newspaper it is located. You can write to them in order to get a copy of the obituary. Do you know the date of death? What cemetery was he buried in? Blake E.
