 Websites presented in alphabetical order Beneath Los Angeles: The Famous, the Infamous, and the Just Plain Dead 
 This A-Z and searchable site claims to be the home page of the permanent residents of Los Angeles, CA. It memorializes their residency through a photo-guide of their gravesites, with some brief annotations. Shameless Plugs/More Than a Passing Fancy elaborates on this photographic hobby and on the "camera-toting looky-loos" who are in "pursuit of celebrity grave hunting." http://www.beneathlosangeles.com/ Topics: California: History, Death & Dying, History, Los Angeles & Environs Last updated Oct 1, 2002 Consumer Guide to Funeral and Cemetery Purchases
