Doing a free search of death notices online requires that you have some information before you start. Death notices are often called obituaries in local newspapers. A death notice will have the name of the deceased, the date of death and the date, time and location of the funeral and internment.

To start your search of death notices

First, go to Newspaper Obituaries and choose the state where the deceased passed away. Once you click on the state, you will be taken to a page where you will find all the newspaper obituaries for that state listed by the name of the city and the newspaper.

Next you'll click on the name of the city's newspaper and you'll be taken to the newspaper's website. You'll be able to view death notices and obituaries there.

In some cases, you'll be taken right to the online obituaries and death notices section of the newspaper. In other cases, you'll be taken to the newspaper's homepage and from there you'll have to find the obituaries and death notices section. And finally, some newspapers require that you have a membership or subscription to view their online newspaper. In that case, you'll have to join or sign up according to their instructions.
