Los Angeles County Cemeteries

If you like having free genealogy on the internet, GET INVOLVED with the USGenweb Tombstone Project in your area! Thank you to those who have already gotten involved. We are making great progress getting the L.A. cemeteries online!

I NEED YOUR HELP! There are many other ways you can help even if you don't live in Southern California. If you would like to transcribe a cemetery or just create an INDEX, please CONTACT ME!

These area codes are constantly changing, and I need help keeping this page up to date! If you do live in Southern California and these numbers are not long distance for you, please help me get more FAX #s.

Los Angeles County Funeral Directors are another excellent source for information on your ancestors. Obituaries are hard to find if you don't have the exact date of death, but the cemetery may be able to tell you which mortuary the family used. If they are still in business, you may be amazed at what they can tell you about yourrelative and their next of kin. I have posted many LA County Funeral Homes on the new Regional Research Pages.
Also, check out the updated Newspapers and Obituaries page for more help.
