For starters, you might want to check to see if the person is buried at Congressional Cemetery. It is the only cemetery website in D.C. with vast resources on persons buried there. You can find them at www.congressionalcemetery.org and select On-Line Collectons then select Obituaries & Death Notices. You'd be surprised at how many ancestors you might have buried at Congressional. Many I had been looking for are buried there. If the person isn't buried there, you might want to email the D.C. Public Library and see if they will look up the obituary for you. I'm not aware of fees or this service at all since I always looked them up myself when I lived in the D.C. area. Isn't the 1930 Census great? -----Original Message----- From: teresa farrow-welker [mailto:tkfarrowwelker@msn.com] Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 11:07 PM To: WashingtonDC-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [WashingtonDC'' ] On line help Is anyone aware of on line death info for D.C?

I was able to find a great piece of history about my Great Grandmother's brother, Howard Milton Vermillion. Thank you William Boswell for posting the site about Congressional. Is it me - or is the print on that website way too small. I tried adjusting my screen - but I think it's the site. Other sites seem to work fine.

I think its the site. Some of the type is small. Most of the online collections are in PDF format and the type is small. -----Original Message----- From: annie [mailto:thatgrl@attbi.com] Sent: Saturday, June 22, 2002 1:50 PM To: WashingtonDC-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [WashingtonDC'' ] On line help I was able to find a great piece of history about my Great Grandmother's brother, Howard Milton Vermillion.
