Obituary Search Tips

To make searches easier, Memphis Area Deaths and Mid-South Deaths are listed on gomemphis.com for the past week. To find an obituary published in The Commercial Appeal within the previous seven days, you can review files for each day by clicking on the links beneath "Recent Obituaries."

You also can search by using the Site Search tool, which will locate a search word(s) within active files on the web site. To find obituaries published earlier, you can use the "News Library/Archives" link. The archives contain obituaries back to June 27, 1990. There is a special "Searching for Obituaries" help page.
