Boston globe obits for 20 years are in the archives if they were written by a
Globe reporter. You have to pay for them if you want the whole article,but you
can certainly find out if they are there at all.

Current death notices are archived for a few months or the current yer - I
forget which.

> Boston Globe On-line archives contains almost 20 years of articles and
> obituaries http://boston.com/globe/search and
http://boston.com/globe/deaths

The Quincy Patriot Ledger obits are available for recent years if you are an
ancestry.com member. Worecter obits are there too for recent years.

The Boston Public Library does research lookups and they have more of the
Hingham area newspapers on microfilm - way back than any body.

See Henry Scannell's BPL resource talk at

He focusses on shipping resources but mentions the newspaper particulars in
the Boston States Migrations fair talk he did
