Dear List Subscribers, I subscribe to another list that also looks for obituaries. If you don't find success here in your search, you might subscribe and try that list. It is: US-Obits@rootsweb.com The list owner is encouraging more activity on their list so that it stays active. He explains what they do this way: "The purpose of this list is to offer the members the opportunity to donate obituaries whether from their family line or ones they think might be useful as well as providing a platform for requesting obit information on a particular individual." If this is new to you, check it out. Sincerely, John Warther List Owner, obit-lookups
HI John. To me it is repetitive . Two message boards serving the same purpose. It is similar to having a message board and a mailing list for the same thing.. The last message posted to that list was May 2018. The list moderator may want to keep it active but in actualityit is dead.
