Well she made the front page of the newspaper. I went all over trying to find out who, what or anything re; her death to no avail. I NEED to know why she died March 28, 1938 with 5 degree burns from a fire in Stevinson, Ca. The paper stated it could be murder but I couldn't find anything further re; this. I went to the historical society and they said they were to short staffed to help because all the fills are in storage and no personell to help. Can someone tell me what I can do next. Any help will be greatfully accepted. Thank you Helen
