Sample Letter

This sample form letter of inquiry to send to funeral homes was contributed by Ron Grassi.
Feel free to revise it with your own wording. It is just for a sample. For instance, some think that "family research" might be more effective than the wording "genealogy research" because "genealogy research" might connotate a professional researcher getting paid for doing research which might "turn off" a funeral home director. Choose wording which best fits your need.

To whom it may concern,

I am doing some genealogical research, and found your address at Macoupin ILGenWeb <https://macoupin.illinoisgenweb.org/>, and have gotten information that (name of person/s) passed away in (name of town/city), and would like to have you check your records to see if you handled the arrangements.

If you handled the arrangements, would you please send me a copy of the Record of Funeral?

I am enclosing a SASE for your use in replying.

I really appreciate your help in this matter.

Sincerely,

(name)
