    3. Mary, I searched the Ancestry.com database and did not find them in California in the 1920 and 1930 censuses. I did find the entry you apparently found in the California Death Index for Lily. I also found the following in the California Death Index: Grover Cleveland Miller, b. 3 Mar 1885, PA; d. 2 Dec 1944, Los Angeles county, CA, Mother's maiden name: Keller Grover C. Miller, b. 4 Apr 1885, Minnesota; d. 24 Jun 1961, Shasta County, CA; Mother's maiden name: Day I suggest you send for the death certificate of one or both of them. Their death certificate should list family information as well as a specific place of interment (or other disposition). (Tehama county is adjacent to Shasta county. There is a town of Tehama in the county. The reference to Tehama could be to the town or to the county generally.) Redding is in Shasta county and is the county seat. The county clerk's website is at <http://www.co.shasta.ca.us/Departments/AssessorRecorder/deathcerts.shtml>. Each DC is $12 and can be ordered by mail. The website gives the information on how to do so. Anyone is entitled to an "Informational" copy. (Never order a certificate through the state office in Sacramento as they often take a year or more to respond. If you know the county ALWAYS order from the county. If you're not sure of the county you may have to use the state. Most counties will keep your fee even if they don't find the record. They call it a "search fee.") You might also look at the California GenWeb sites for Shasta and Tehama counties. These sites, maintained by volunteers, often have outstanding family history information on them. Some even have inventoried cemeteries in their counties. Shasta is at <http://cagenweb.com/shasta/> and Tehama is at <http://cagenweb.com/eb/tehama>. Good luck.
