I could check the Calif. Death Index for you so that you would have an exact date of death - this might make it easier for someone to find an obit for you.

I have further info on my cousin, Carnell Baker Thomas. Since my mail of 4/26, I have determined that she was born 14 Oct 1906 and died Jan 1969. She was living in Zip code 94621, at the time of her death. Her SS No. was 570-10-3707, per the SS index. I would appreciate it if someone in that zip code would look up he obituary and forward it to me direct. Of course I would rather hear from one of her descendants. Thanks. BB

I am looking for my cousin, Carnell Baker Thomas, the daughter of Clara Moore Baker, the daughter of Curren and Mary E. Smith Moore. Curren Moore, born in 1855, was my grandfather's brother. Carnell Baker Thomas was alive and living in Alameda Co., CA, in Oct 1967. Would like to contact her and/or her descendants to obtain info for the Moore family history I am compiling. Any help will be appreciated. BB

Looked at CADI for Elsie Doughtery: This was the only listing 1940-69: Elsa M. Dougherty, San Bernardino, 9/1/60, 96960 If you think she might have lived longer than 1969 I can check 1970-94 for you.

Forgive me if I have sent this message before: Does anyone remember hearing about Anna Simons of Hayward, CA? She died in January of 1998 at the age of 110. Jessie Moniz

If anyone does lookups at the Alameda County Courthouse, I wondered if perhaps someone could please look up the death certificate of George Washington "Swope" Hull, who died on May 4, 1911 in Oakland. He was buried in Mt. View Cemetery. I wanted to know for sure if this George Hull is the one I'm looking for. He was born in Virginia around 1850 to George Washington Hull and Sarah Ann Swope Hull. He was married to Mary Dever or Devier. If someone could confirm this information on the death certificate, I would appreciate it. If it is the one I'm looking for, could you also please give me his birthdate and the name of the funeral home that handled the burial arrangements? Thank you. Duston Brooks

I have a death certificate for James Loftus Thomas who died at Alameda County Hospital, July 5, 1937. I am trying to obtain more information about his life. He worked as a Watchman for Mills College. On his daughter's birth certificate in 1919 his occupation was listed as boiler maker at (looks like) Moore's Shipyards). Does anyone have access to any newspapers of the time for an obituary? Or any other information about employees or these two institutions. Thank you, Janet Hanson hanson@idir.net

Often in City Directories a person who owned a business would be listed with their business as well as residence address. City Directories for Oakland are in the Periodical Room of the Main Branch of the Oakland Public Library. I believe there are also some Oakland directories at the San Francisco public library, but --as you might guess--Oakland has a more complete set. If you are far away and don't have access to the library, but do have access to an LDS Family History Center, many of the directories have been filmed. --Laurel

As it happens there is (for the most part) no 1890 census. A sad tale, it is, but the short version is that it burned. There are a couple of stray counties (alas, not in California) that remain as well as some data re Civil War veterans, but that's about it. I did check the index for the 1890 Alameda County Great Register and found no William JOHNSON (doesn't prove anything except that he probably wasn't registered to vote then). --Laurel
