Hope this helps, Jocelynn -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Diane Wilson Sent: Friday, December 08, 2006 8:22 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [CASONOMA] Vivienne WILSON Hi from Way Down Under in Auckland New Zealand I am searching for Vivienne WILSON maiden name unknown who married Charles WILSON ( originally from Scotland but naturalised American in Honolulu 1923) and had a son Clive WILSON who was born in Lihue Kauai Hawaii in Jan 1925 Vivienne was born in Sonoma on 29 April 1886 and died in 1986 at Santa Rosa Sonoma.. I have her birth date from a shipping record and the death date from your Social Security Index. Is there any way I can find either a death notice or maybe an obituary as she reached such an old age. Also would it have relatives noted in the funeral notice.. I have lost touch with this family since a family letter which says Clive is in the US Navy during WW2 and his Mother is living in California. I have been daunted to search for Clive Wilson in the War time US Navy... I was so excited to find these dates yesterday in Ancestry. COM and now of course want to find more.
