To get started, simply enter the last name of the relative you’re researching and click the “Search” button. This is a great starting point for deeper exploration.

To conduct a more detailed search, follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Enter the first and last names of your relative. Adding a middle name can help refine the results.
  • Step 2: Add a keyword related to a location or institution to focus your search.
  • Step 3: Exclude certain words to filter out unrelated entries.

However, finding ancestors in the Johnson City Press obituary archives can be tough if your relative had a common name. Here are a few extra tips to make your search even more successful:

  • Start with information from more recent ancestors to trace older ones.
