Pro tips

Expert Genealogy Advice for Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church Cemetery Research

🗺️ Search the place first: Search the place first, not the person first, when names are common. A confirmed cemetery dramatically improves the quality of a burial search.

📅 Use year ranges: Use year ranges from the sample table to separate duplicate names. Even partial death-date context is often enough to narrow a search.

🏛️ Widen your scope: If the page looks too thin, that usually means the cemetery record is real but the person-level layer is incomplete. In that case, the county archive is the best fallback path.
