INTRODUCTION

This alphabetical obituary index was created by 36 volunteers working over 7,000 hours from 20072013. It

provides an easy reference for researchers seeking family

history information and biographical sources.

These references are in most cases the first published notice. Researchers are urged to search forward about a

week or two in the newspaper on microfilm from the date

the death notice or obituary was published to find further

references about funerals, etc. There was not always a funeral notice published. When variations in spellings of

names were found, both variations were usually entered.

If references about an individual are not found here,

the Thunder Bay Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society has published cemetery burial lists and headstone

transcriptions, which are available at Brodie Library and the

Northern Studies Resource Centre at Lakehead University.

Obituaries are not always factual. Use them as a guide and always try to cross-reference from multiple sources for

accuracy.

Good luck with your searches.
