OBITUARY REQUESTS

 

This page was last updated: Sunday August 22, 2010 09:45 PM

Requests will be posted for 6 months. 

If you don't have a specific date of death, don't request an obituary. Undated requests are no longer accepted, but can be posted to the discussion board on facebook.com (Ontario Obits)
 

This page is specifically for genealogists who are seeking obituaries in Ontario, Canada ONLY.  If you are looking for an obituary, send me an email at janet.jones@ontarioobits.com or submit it using the link below and your query will be posted. (Please provide full name, date of death & location of deceased). 

Please click here to submit your Obituary Request

If you see a request in your area, please let me know if you're able to fill it, or if you tried.


Always looking for volunteers who will look for obits in your area. Please send me an email letting me know if you are able to do so. Names and contact information will remain with me to avoid an influx of requests, unless you specify otherwise.  If time permits, please see if any of these obituaries appear in your local publication - one never knows where they will find the information they seek!  Lookup Tip: obituaries from the earlier years may be found up to 8 weeks after death.

If you're looking for a copy of an Ontario death registration, and you know the name and year of death, please contact Bill Mills or Dan Walker (fee based services)

There are people search resources online that can allow you to find old friends from your past as well.


Requests are sorted by county and include publication name that the obituary should be found in
If your request is listed on this page:
please double and triple check all information, in particular the dates. 
Several requests have had to be changed after many hours of searching wasted because of a typo

For volunteers - if publications and dates are marked in blue, this indicates true paper and date published as found in an index
