I can not help with the obit, but with the man living and dying in Alhambra maybe an Alhambra paper would have the obit? Have you check with the LA Library to see if they have such a paper? Here is a newspaper name that came up when I ran a quick search: Alhambra Press Freedom-Guardian * 317 W. Main Street Alhambra, CA 91801 (818) 576-7837 Deborah Story Rootsweb Los Angeles Mailing List Volunteer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yardsley Macpherson" <y.mac@verizon.net> To: <CALOSANG-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 12:49 PM Subject: [CALosAngeles] Obituary look-up please/JEFFS > If it's not too out of the way for anyone, could someone please do an > obituary look-up for me?
