This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: RBestrom7380 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.washington.counties.king/7437/mb.ashx Message Board Post: A lot of these obits being posted are from OLD requests, where the Original Poster was given the Washington State Library service over five years ago. And, in the past, this board has discussed the fact that the obits being published in database systems are NOT the true and full obits that were in the newspapers. So, unless the obit poster is using newspaper microfilm for Seattle, Eastern WA, Oregon... These are probably not the full obits.
