United States ~ Obituary Index
Notes:
This is the Entry Page for the Obituary Project created by Jose Rivera Nieves.
As far as we have been able to discern, Jose created these indexes from 2004 until 2013.
The Project was abandoned in 2015, at which time, Tim Stowell 'Adopted It'.
Jose passed away sometime after 2013.
For the most part the files were on RootsWeb.
There are almost 3700 files that Jose Rivera Nieves created over the years.
A word about the format:
The Indexes all appear to have been created using spreadsheets.
Jose gleaned information from Newspapers and Funeral Homes in each County and that "Born In" the County was the "Search Criteria"
Both the USA and the World Files are complete and uploaded.
With thanks to the USGenWeb Volunteers who helped strip RW/Ancestry Code.
Free Find Search Engine for the USA portion of the Project

There was a set of images along with partial obituaries for Military Personell who gave their life in Service.
Most, if not all of these folks can be found online in various Memorial Pages, but, that said, I have created an index with links:
Jose also created Obituary Indexes for World Countries: Please use this link
