How to Find the Burial Place From an Obituary

If your main goal is to locate the person’s grave, do not stop at the biography. Look carefully for words such as burial, interment, graveside service, cemetery or military honors.

Write down the exact cemetery name Record the cemetery exactly as it appears in the notice, including the city and state.

Record the burial or graveside date This can help cemetery staff distinguish people with similar names.

Check the cemetery record Ask for the section, lot, row, plot or grave number if you need the exact location.

Use another record to verify the match Compare the cemetery information with the obituary, death certificate, headstone, funeral-home record or official veterans record when applicable.

For a broader grave-search process, use the Find a Graves cemetery and burial research guide. It explains how to combine obituaries, cemetery offices, death records, veteran databases and historical records when a grave cannot be located from one source alone.
