Depending on in which paper the obit was published, the information is likely already on the internet. Many papers now include the obit section in the online editions. g.mo -----Original Message----- From: Sally Youngquist [mailto:youngqui@interl.net] Sent: Tuesday, December 26, 2000 6:42 PM To: RootsWeb-Help-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Obituary copyright Thank you for the viewpoints on copyright and obituaries. I reread the obits and see that they are more or less statements about the families, not a personal write-up about the deceased. My second question, would the living family maybe not like their names, and yes, addresses as far as the town they live in, published on the internet. I still feel it could offend some people. My concern was that it wasn't posted by a family member who could take responsibility for it. Thanks for your replies and I will leave them on the site. If by chance I receive any feed back, I can always apologize and take them off.
