Obit help needed

[mousepotato]

Hello, I'm new to genealogy and don't know much about resources and where to
find what.
I have G-Grandparents buried in:
ROYAL PALM CEMETERY, St. Petersburg, Pinellas County, Florida

HJORT, Axel R., b.1869 d.1933 (my G-Grandfather)
HJORT, Selma, b.1872 d.1945 (my G-Grandmother)
and their son
HJORT, Harold Robert, b.1904 d.1963 (my Grandfather)

My G-Grandparents were from Sweden, but I have no clue who *their* parents
were, I'm hoping if someone knows how to find their Obits, maybe their names
may be listed?
The Family members I have left are of no help : ( ~TIA~

Susan, Try contacting The Pinellas Genealogy Society through their web site;

http://www.rootsweb.com/~flpgs/

They may be able to do a local look up in the area newspaper archives.
Its worth asking.

Try subbing to alt.genealogy. There are some really helpful people
there and some of them have Scandanavian ancestors so will be able to
advise you what to do and where to look. They are also mostly
Americans in that group as well.

I'd recommend soc.genealogy.nordic which is the official newsgroup for
Nordic or Scandinavian ancestry.
