Databases

Heritage Hub formerly America’s Obituaries (Newsbank)
Heritage Hub (formerly America’s Obituaries & Death Notices) is NewsBank’s large and comprehensive collection of newspaper obituaries and death notices from around the United States. Each obituary or death notice is indexed by the name of the deceased person, to make searching easier and more precise. In addition, the text of each obituary or death notice is searchable, making it easy to find just what you’re looking for using a place of residence, occupation, names of family members, or other personal information.
