This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AFB.2ACE/1748 Message Board Post: If you are looking for an obituary between 2003 and 2005, you might want to give the following web site a look. This is an internet site archiver, that saves web pages as they were on certain days. So I checked to see what they had saved for the Boston Globe obituary pages, and got this: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.boston.com/news/globe/obituaries/ Unfortunately, I missed the obituary I was looking for by one day. Obituaries for many more years can be found (but not viewed) at the following web site: http://oa.newsbank.com/ To read them involves a fee, but at least you can see the search results for the obituaries that exist. You may try using the Internet web archiver for your favorite online newspaper obituary section. Again, go to http://web.archive.org/web to type in a web site as you want to see it in the past.
