Finding Idaho obituaries isn't nearly as difficult as people think. Between the newspapers and national websites, it is fairly simple to look up obits for people you knew, you just have to know where to begin your search. For example, if you are looking for listings from 1911-1951, you have several choices. You can begin your search with RootsWeb.
They have a complete archive of listings from that era, as does Brigham Young University. Both archives are easy to use and can be accessed over the web. The Idaho Statesman newspaper is one of the largest in the state and they have a comprehensive database online that you can search, as well. From 1977 to present, you can access this database through the BYU website.
If you want a hard copy of Idaho obituary records, the Boise Public Library will make you copies for a fee. The library also has a complete search feature accessible over the web that lets you look up listings from all over the state. If you are looking for Payette County listings, check in with RootsWeb to see listings from the distant past. Idaho obituary records are surprisingly easy to find and look up online.
