Alaska: general information

Alaska is the place with the most natural resources. Here you can see a huge number of glaciers and about seventy active volcanoes. This state is famous for its oil, gold fish and bears. Alaska is in first place among the other U.S. states in terms of area. The state has an area of 1,717,854 km2 and the largest cities are Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau and North Paul. The capital of Alaska is the city of Juneau.

Alaska specializes in mining, namely gold, silver, zinc and lead.Alaska climate is not favorable for agriculture, but in the western part of the state, reindeer farming is well developed. In addition, the fishing industry is very well developed, as well as tourism and the military industry. Thus we can conclude that the vast majority of the country's adult population works in these areas or in those areas that are related to them.

Alaska: The People

While Alaska ranks first in area, it is forty-seventh in population. In 2020 Alaska had a population of more than 736,081, with 5,000 deaths. This state is also recognized by the huge number of celebrities who were born here and became famous not only in the United States but also outside the states. Many of them you know: Sarah Palin, Virgil Partch, Ray Malley, Ty Conklin and many other famous people.

However, Alaska is not only famous for its celebrities. This state is also home to a huge number of people, each with their own story. It is easy to find out the story of a public person: just use an Internet search and you will find all the necessary information in front of you. With non-public people, everything is somewhat more complicated: about them not so much information in the public domain, but it still is. For example, using search services, you can learn the history of the deceased person and find his obituary.

Obituaries: what they are and how to use them

An obituary is a kind of plaque of a person. Obituaries can be brief or more detailed. As a rule, brief obituaries contain information about the person: sex, name and surname, date of birth and death, place of birth and death, the person's age. In more expanded versions to the basic information is added information about where the person lived, what he did, what was his family and other information.

Such obituaries you can find on our site.

How to search for an obituary?

Since Alaska is first on the list of big states, it can take a long time to find a deceased person. You can reduce this time if you build a proper search system right away.

The first thing to pay attention to and what can help you is the most accurate data about the person. Naturally, the first and last name is the most important, but you may also need information such as place of residence, place of work and date of death.

Second, you can check available online databases of obituaries. Search engines can help you with this.

A more complicated way is to try to find a newspaper that may have published information about the deceased person. But it is desirable to know the city and even the area where the person lived, to narrow down the search.

There is a way that combines all three: you can go to one of the public libraries in Alaska. Libraries are staffed by professionals who can advise you on how to conduct a proper search. Many libraries have information about people who have died more than two centuries ago.

On this site, you can use the state filter to find information about people who have died in that state. You can also filter by first and last name, city, and date of death.
