If you go to genuki, each county page has a list of any obituary notices that are online. There are a few, but not many have been transcribed yet. Do you know the area or the year you are looking for? If so, it may be worth checking with the LDS, they may be able to get the film for you.

Firstly, I don't know if Obituary is spelt right - but you know what I am trying to say so.....forgive my laziness (Can't be bothered to find the dictionary to check it!!) Anyway, what I wanted to know is if there are any websites where you can find obituary columns from newspapers. I am currently stuck behind that good old brick wall again and I wondered if I could get hold of these obituary notices and find info that way i.e "Frank Casey died leaving his wife Mary, son Charlie and daughter Suzie" etc - so I at least know the names I need to look out for. Can anyone help?
