I've been searching for an obit or death confirmation for a Katherine/Catherine Dyrkacz (nee: Kielbowicz); she apparently died in 1915, but I've not been able to find any record of it. Any suggestions? Thank you, Kim

It appears marriage and death searches can be found using ilsos.gov replacing cyberdriveillinois.com in the URL. For tonight (Saturday), at any rate!

Listers, I sent off to GRO for the birth certificate of my great grandmother, Margaret BRADY WALSH (WELCH). She was born in County Mayo on 31 May 1873, according to family history and her death certificate from Chicago, Cook County, IL. They checked their records and came up blank. My only thought now is to search the church records, but three things stop me. The first is that I have no idea who her parents were. Second, I have no idea where in County Mayo she was born. Third, I do not know in what church she was baptized. I assume that she was R.C., but I am not sure. The descendant family is R.C., so I think it is safe to assume she was also. Are there LDS microfilms I can search? Would it be an exercise in futility if GRO cannot locate the birth certificate? What would be my next move? Bill Karr in Peoria, IL., USA

Hi Margaret - I'm going to email you an article from proquest on the bands who were playing at the Aragon for New Years Eve. Prior to that, it looks like the main band was Wayne King's Orchestra. These concerts, or parts of them seem to have been broadcast on WGN radio. Another one that was mentioned was Bernie Cummin's Orchestra. During November, the last week of the Chicago Tribune's School of Cookery was held at the Aragon. The articles mentioned entertainment, but it was things like a magician, dancing, "community sing" and an opera singer. Hope this helps some.
