Did you try the library? There are also some libraries that keep indexes of deaths in the area (there's a name for it but I'm not sure what it is). --- Maggie Toussaint <maggietoussaint@adelphia.net> wrote: > I looked all through the Richmond newspapers for her > obituary.

I spent a day at the Library of Virginia. Their index of deaths stopped in 1953, so it didn't help me to find Bertha. Is there another library or another place where death indexes might be?
