California: General information

Almost the entire U.S. almond crop grows in this state, and statistics show that one in four local residents was born outside the United States. California is the third largest state in the United States. The state has an area of 423,970 km2, and the largest cities are San Diego, San Jose, San Francisco, and Fresno, with Sacramento as the capital.

Agriculture is the most important part of the economy. The aerospace industry and everything related to art and entertainment, especially the film and television industry, also play a special role. California is also experiencing rapid growth in the high-tech industry. Thus we can conclude that the vast majority of the country's adult population works in these very fields or in those directions associated with them.

California: The People

While California is the third largest state in terms of area, it is the undisputed leader in terms of population. In 2020 the population of California was more than 39 million 576 thousand people, 3,389,700 died. This state is also recognized by the huge number of celebrities born here who have become famous not only in the United States, but also outside the states. You would know many of them: Tim Burton, Nicolas Cage, Cher, Cameron Diaz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jodie Foster, David Crosby, Clint Eastwood, Angelina Jolie and many other famous people.

But California is not only famous for its celebrities. The state is also home to a huge number of people, each with their own story to tell. Finding out the story of a public person is simple: just search the internet and you will find all the necessary information. With non-public people, everything is a little 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 do I search for an obituary?

Since California is the third largest state, it can take a long time to find a dead person. You can reduce this time if you build a proper search system right away.

The first thing to pay attention to and that can help you - 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 California. Libraries are staffed by professionals who can tell you how to do your search properly. Many libraries have information about people who died more than two centuries ago.

You can use the city filter on this site to find information about people who have died in that city. You can also use filters for first and last names and date of death.
