Obituary
Collection for HALSEY In United States
Description:
The collection contains recent obituaries from hundreds
of newspapers. We scour the Internet daily to find new
obituaries and extract the facts into our database. We
also provide source information and links to the full
obituary text. If you're searching for a recently
deceased ancestor, a living relative who might be
mentioned in an obituary, or former classmates or
neighbors then this is a great place to start.
Extended Description:
The wealth of genealogical and biographical information
to be found in an informative obituary certainly makes
the effort of searching for one worthwhile. For many of
our ancestors (and relatives), the obituary is the only
"biographical sketch" that was ever devoted to
that individual. In addition to names, dates, and places
of birth, marriage, and death, the obituary often
identifies relationships of the deceased as child,
sibling, parent, grandparent, etc., to numerous other
individuals.
Obituaries may even suggest other documentation of an
individual's death - a death certificate in another
county because the hospital was located there; church or
cemetery records (by identifying the place of burial or
the officiating minister); or records of a coroner's
inquest because the death was sudden or unexpected. And,
of course, the wealth of detail in an informative
obituary may open up many research avenues.
In an obituary search, it is necessary to investigate the
files of all likely newspapers. It is impossible to know
beforehand which, if any, paper is going to have the best
or fullest obituary. Many cities have more than one paper
and an obituary for a specific individual could appear in
more than one place. Also, when considering possible
obituary sources don't just check in the community where
the individual died - also check the community (or
communities) where the individual lived.
Many people in their later years go to live with children
and often die far from where they spent most of their
adult lives. But, if they still had connections with the
home community, there is a good chance that an obituary
will appear there, perhaps a more detailed one than will
be found in the community of death, where that person was
just a new or temporary resident. However, the opposite
may also be true.
To search thoroughly for obituaries from past newspaper
editions, the best approach is to use a variety of tools
including Ancestry's Obituary Collection, Ancestry's
Historical Newspapers collection, and offline research
through local libraries and newspaper offices.
