There are multiple ways to obtain info on relatives who've passed away.
I've used my family as an example.
Some have archived or active obituaries. Never trust a link! I've seen many a link
"disappear," when the need to keep that source active is no longer assumed to be of
importance, or it's been moved to another link making it difficult to locate or sold to another party.
Remember too a nickname is not a name. My father was referred to as Frank, but he
is officially listed as Americo. Although Harry born Americo is only known as Harry
except for his birth certificate. The mystery of how he became Harry died with him.
We are moving towards a paperless society which is dangerous. One major hack & it's "all gone."
If you find info you want to keep at the very least print it.
You may not find many a relative because they died before social security became the
"identifier," for your life's file or because records were not kept. They may be listed on paper in the
town where they were born/died or married.
Donald is buried on the property so he also becomes more invisible on certain sites since he is
not documented through church/town records.

When searching family most stop after finding "relatives," forgetting or not caring about the spouse or kids.
Searching for them better identifies that part of your family, otherwise you have only 1/2 the information.
An example of this is barbara's husband joe:

2. www.sortedbyname.com
This website uses data from multiple sites mostly using social security numbers to create lists. Search your family here:

3. www.deathfigures.com
Yeah i know the name sounds awful but
it's the best looking site with general information about your relatives
& your last name.
You'll notice the average lifespan for persons with our last names
is in the mid 70's. Obviously this is skewed as most lifespan data is generated
from older generations who died younger:
I found most of the Cedrone siblings. I search only the sibling not spouses
or children to keep it simple.
Nancy nor Ann were found. I also searched Annunziata & Antoinette.
Clara has not yet been added.

www.findagrave.com
This site is made up of volunteers who
are often not related to the deceased.
They add gravestone info & photos at random
I contributed my parent's to this site the rest linked below were added by strangers although Clara & Dan's may have been a Marini family member. I also added a new photo to their link showing the updated stone (After Clara passed away) as well as a better photo of my grandparents headstone which is linked on my parents page
My Parents Headstone plus Clara & Dan's followed by Harry & Edna. I have no idea why the person who photographed Harry's headstone didn't clean it before doing so.
The last link is the Camilli Mausoleum where Nancy & family are interned although only Carmela, Peter & Nancy's first born is listed
The other siblings, Vi & Ann are not found online & as of this date Sid (Salvatore) is still
"residing," in an urn at home:
