Obituary Lookup Volunteers
Maine

Please follow these guidelines when making a lookup request:

If this is your first request, read Making a Request. To find the county for your lookup request, use the USA County Lookup. Before making a request, do a quick Web Search in case the obituary is available there. If you don't know the exact date for a death in 1960 through 1997, please use the Maine Death Index (1960-1997) to find the date of death before you make a request. If you find a volunteer for your area, use the listing's Email link to send your request directly to him or her.  If you don't find a volunteer, send your request to the mailing list (see OBIT-LOOKUPS-L Mailing List for subscription information). After receiving a lookup, post or publish the obituary or an abstract to help other researchers. Please do not send the same request to more than one volunteer.

WE NEED VOLUNTEERS - Please consider volunteering
for your area, even on a limited basis, because every lookup
helps someone.  Becoming a Volunteer has more information.
