What Newspapers Are Included? | How May I Obtain Copies?

This index covers the Schenectady Daily Gazette for 1902, 1993 to June 1995 and Dec. 2005 to June 11, 2006, as well as other Schenectady papers for various periods dating back to 1803 and regional papers beginning in 2005-6 through September 30, 2008. See the newspaper list for specific coverage.

Unless otherwise stated, this index includes all obituaries and death notices (labeled DN) in the newspaper. It also includes citations to related articles. Entries without page numbers generally indicate obituaries posted to the newspaper's Web site; articles from those papers are not included.

The form of the index is as follows: last name, first name, maiden name in parentheses if we can verify it, newspaper code, date and page, death date if known and notes.

Total citations to date: 47,576, including 8,001 added entries for maiden names.

In order to minimize the confusion caused by variant spellings and spacing, the normal sorting order has been modified. Names are filed without regard to case, spacing or punctuation, Mac and Mc are filed together as Mac, and names beginning with St. are under Saint.
