Hello, Just a tip. If you have a death date, be sure to write to the library nearest to where the death occurred and request an obit. Usually, the library will ask for a donation to cover cost of copies and postage. It is a great way to find out who siblings were, parents names, etc. It hasn't worked for me for my Adams brick wall, but it might work for you! Shirley
Good tip. Never thought to contact a library. Our library collects some newspapers, but they don't do any genealogy related work. Alli :) > Hello, > Just a tip.
