Go to http://www.thpl.org
Click on Information Gateway
Click on Genealogy
Then type in any of the names you are looking for. If there was an article
or obit posted in the Tampa Tribune or any of its affiliates (includes
several adjoining counties), more information will come up. Say the name of
a person you are seeking is on this list, you click on the name and the
computer will give you the name of the paper, day, date, column, page, etc.
you need to obtain. If it's a book or article, most can be obtained via
inter-library loan. If it's an obit or newspaper article, one of us can get
it for you.

There are also cemetery lists on-line, USF has a great library and on-line
site, and other sites to help you along. Try the library site first and see
what you find. If Hobbs, Marvin doesn't come up, broaden your search to
Hobbs, and you may find more.
