→Obituaries
Not everyone who died has an obituary. In Wayne County, Ohio the early newspapers provide very few death notices or obituaries. You may occasionally find a notice if an estate is in Probate. Near the end of the nineteenth (19th) century, death notices and obituaries appear more often. However, most of them contain little information. Their could be a separate section for the death notices and obituaries but more times than not, mentions of deaths may be found in the social news or personal mention. In present day, most newspapers require payment to place an obituary notice in the newspaper.
