FILE CONTENTS of the Cleveland Necrology File:
This database was produced from a microfilmed copy of an alphabetical card
file containing local cemetery records and newspaper death notices gathered
by the staff of the Cleveland Public Library. A small collection of records
from the Cleveland Bureau of Vital Statistics and some indexed items from
the
Annals of Cleveland were also part of the original card file and are also
included in the database. The newspaper source material consists of paid
notices which were published in the following newspapers: Cleveland Plain
Dealer, 1850-1975, the Cleveland Herald, 1833, 1847-1848, 1876, 1878-1879
and
the Cleveland Press, August 16, 1941 - 1975.

Note: This file is not an official or complete record of deaths in the
Cleveland area during those years. It was not always customary during this
time period for individuals to use paid newspaper notices. In addition, the
cemetery records included in this database may not be complete.
