Hi Karl, <Try this one: <A HREF="http://home.att.net/~wee-monster/deathrecords.html">Death Records: Online Searchable Death Indexes &< Databases</A> It will give you the newspaper name and date the obit was published. Mostly from the late 1980's to today. <When you're finished with that, try this one: <A HREF="http://www.newspapersol.com/usa.html">U.S. Newspapers and Online <Media Guide</A> This gives the names of all newspapers in the U.S. and Canada that are on-line. Sometimes you'll luck out and find the obit. Then do this one: <<A HREF="http://www.publiclibraries.com/"><Public Libraries</A> This will give you all libraries in the U.S., so you can write to them and ask for a copy of the obit. If it is older obits that you are looking for, try this <<A HREF="http://www.pa-roots.com/pagenweb/"><PAGenWeb: Pennsylvania Genealogy</A> Quite a few (if not all) of the counties have an obit page. These will be obits that people have contributed. Hope this helps. Donna Thomas
