Hi David, Need to remove your post from the obituary board - only obits are posted there. You're welcome to post to the query page but your post already was shared with the CASANJOA mailing list and I'm forwarding it to another one CADI that has volunteers that do dcts and obits..... >From CADI: YATES DOUGLAS BRITT 01/13/1929 MCINTYRE born OH died San Joaquin 06/18/1997 ss554346811 age 68 YATES NINA M 03/20/1906 born TE died Los Angeles 01/06/1966- age 59 If you haven't already done so, please visit this site <http://userdb.rootsweb.com/ca/death/search.cgi> or in the case of births<http://userdb.rootsweb.com/ca/birth/search.cgi> and use the "add" link at the far right to leave any other information you might have and maybe someone will contact you. (The password is something you create so no one can edit your entry). Also, use the link to the SSDI and see if he's in the index and leave a message there also the same way using the postem link. I will cc a fellow researcher (Jackie) that can help you with a death certificate transcription on Douglas. After the city location is determined, an obituary will be easier to locate. Will also cc a researcher (Maggie) that can check CAMI 1949-86 to see if there is a marriage for Douglas and with a maiden name for a spouse you can search the birth index for births. If you need clarification on any point, please include the previous message in your response.
