HISTORY COLLECTIONS
OBITUARIES
The index to death notices appearing in the Painesville
Telegraph, 16 July 1822--30 April 1986, and in the News-Herald, 25 March 1986
to the present, is found in the Genealogy and Local History Room.
This index is currently being transferred to a
searchable online database. Presently all obituaries from 1 January 1998 to the
present are online and along with those from A through L for the period of
1830 through
1997. Click on the button below to go to the Obituary Index.
Cleveland Public Library has two tools to help
locate local death notices and obituaries. One is the Cleveland
Necrology File, an online database of Cleveland area death notices from circa 1850 to
1975. The other is the Cleveland News
Index. This includes entries in the Cleveland Plain Dealer and the Cleveland
Press from 1976 to the present.
