How this service works
Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.
Output
Returns a JSON object with a count of matched records and an array of items, each containing the obituary URL, deceased person's name, city, title, publisher name, obituary ID, publication date, and publication slug. Returns an empty items array (and no charge) if no records are found.
Example use cases
Genealogy research by surname
“Search the Legacy.com obituary sitemaps for anyone with the last name 'Kowalski' — grab up to 200 records across at most 10 sitemap files so I can see where they lived and which newspapers covered them.”
Monitor recent obituary volume
“Fetch the latest 100 obituary listings from Legacy.com's recent paid-obituary sitemap index, up to 10 sitemaps, so I can see how many were published today and from which publishers.”
Locate obituary for a specific person
“Check Legacy.com's sitemap for an obituary mentioning 'Margaret Thornton' — look through up to 20 sitemaps and return whatever you find including the URL, city, and publication date.”

POSThttps://x402.186-241-26-229.sslip.io/v1/legacy?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable obituary records from Legacy.com without building your own sitemap parser. It is ideal for genealogy lookups, monitoring recent death notices, or finding obituary URLs by name — and the pay-only-on-success model makes it low-risk for exploratory queries.
Side effects
- Invalid or unreachable sitemap URL returns an error or empty result with no charge
- nameContains filter too specific yields zero items and no charge
- maxSitemaps set too low misses recent entries
- Legacy.com changes sitemap structure breaking parsing
- Network timeout on large sitemap indexes
- Rate limiting or blocking by Legacy.com
Input
Schema · Request body
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| maxItems | integer | Maximum dataset rows across all sitemap URLs. Set 0 for no item cap; maxSitemaps still limits the crawl. |
| startUrls | array | One or more public Legacy.com XML sitemap or sitemap-index URLs. The prefilled recent paid-obituary index includes titles and publication dates; publication-specific and general obituary sitemaps also work. |
| maxSitemaps | integer | Maximum XML documents to read, including sitemap indexes. The recent paid-obituary index currently points to several URL sets. |
| nameContains | string | Optional case-insensitive text filter on the name in sitemap metadata or the obituary URL slug. It does not query Legacy.com's search pages. |
