I just wanted to recommend to everyone - if you haven't tried this site in a while and you're looking for people in New York, try it again. They have added a bunch of new papers, especially from southern NY state including Westchester Co. and Dutchess Co., and a few from other states like Connecticut and Massachusetts. I recently found 4 obituaries for my husband's direct ancestors, three of whom I didn't even have death dates for. The search engine isn't perfect, so try different combinations of names/places.
