How do I search for an obituary?

Since New York is the twenty-seventh largest state in the world, it can still take a long time to find a deceased person. It is possible to reduce this time if you build a proper search system at once.

The first thing to pay attention to and that can help you is to have as much accurate data about the person as possible. 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.
