The search button is there but I note you have to set up an account to access. Pretty much the same with the Houston Chronicle - if you are not a subscriber then you have to pay. Here in Houston we can also access the obits on the Houston Public Library site ... but of course, you have to have an HPL card - Check with Dallas Public Library to see if they can help. You might also want to try RAOGK .... http://www.raogk.org/ Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness is a group of volunteers who offer to do FREE specific things. Check out well before you ask to be sure you are asking the right person ... and do not make requests of multiple volunteers at the same time (nothing gets more disdain! than to find out we're down at the library, courthouse, etc. and run into someone else who has been asked the same thing by the same person ---- a sure way to 'get your name of the list.') While the time for the research is free, expect to pay any out of pocket expense --- copies, etc. I'm sure you'll find a good volunteer in Dallas.
