Historical Obituaries Index Search Form

The Historical Obituaries Index contains information on obituaries and death notices appearing in the Dayton Daily Journal between 1850-1890. This index includes only basic information about the obituary or death notice listed and where it can be found in the newspaper. It does not include the full-text of the obituary. Results are given in order by date, but sorting can be changed by changing the drop-down box at the end of the form.

Fill in as much or as little information as you know about the obituary you need to find.
