Cleveland Necrology Index

Researchers with ancestors in the Cleveland, Ohio, area
will be interested in the Cleveland Necrology File, a new
online database of Cleveland area obituaries from the
mid-1800s through 1975. Hosted by the Cleveland Public
Library at http://www.cpl.org, the database is fully
searchable and contains newspaper obituary information in
the form of name, date, newspaper source, and a summary of
the important facts from the death notice (spouse,
survivors, funeral arrangements). A reference to the
microfilm reel number on which the obituary file is
contained is also provided. The 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.
