Question: Help finding an obituary!?
my great grandmothers brother just died recently and I would like to try and find his obituary if there is one!. I don't know his name but I know his sisters name "Marie Carter" of somerset, ky!. I know he died probably within the last week because they are going to have a funeral in the next few days!. Sorry but that's all the information I know!. If anyone could help find the obituary that would be great!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
go to www!.legacy!.com and use the "more search options" button and then type in the sister's name (Marie Carter) as a "keyword" search

You might narrow it down to searching in the last 3 days or 7 days to get less hits!.

Should be able to come up with it!. Good luck!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Google "newspapers somerset ky" and "funeral homes somerset ky!." You should be able to find the telephone numbers and maybe the email addresses of any in that town!. Here's a start:

http://search!.yahoo!.com/search!?p=somerse!.!.!.

http://search!.yahoo!.com/search;_ylt=A0ge!.!.!.

Then you can call or email them and explain that you're looking for information on a great-great-uncle who died there recently!. I think people will be glad to help you in these circumstances!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm a librarian!.

I went to the city's newspaper website http://www!.somerset-kentucky!.com!. You can click on the obituaries tab and look at obits from the last several weeks!. See if you can find who you're looking for!.

also, if you know which funeral home he is at, they also often have obits listed on their websites!. Try a google search for "somerset, ky funeral homes" to get a list!.

Good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
