The Ancestry.com web site is a wonderful tool
for conducting family history research. Ancestry.com's database contains
billions of U.S. Census records, immigration records, military records,
social security death index records, historical newspapers and more. It
is a subscription site which can be a little "pricey" (c. $20 a month) but
well worth it.
The
Cleveland Necrology File is a very helpful resource with a dreadful
name! It 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. The database includes paid
death notices published in several of the major Cleveland, Ohio newspapers
from as early as 1833 to 1975. This resource has been helpful for me as
many of my mother's ancestors lived in that area.
