I looked in the latest white pages for any Matcovich's and not one was listed ... There are a ton of Spencers ... There are a few older white pages at the Main Library ... and USF has a few online files you might find useful. You might be able to find something in the Tampa Tribune index, but not all marriages appear in the newspaper these days ... so probably not back then either. Are you sure that she remained in Tampa? Are you sure that she married shortly after leaving highschool?

I'm looking for a Bertie Matcovich bn. probably in July 1929 in Key West. Her mother was Irene Spencer and she had two brothers Gilbert and Marvin Spencer. They moved to Tampa sometime in the 30;s. Bertie would have graduated abt. 1947 and married abt. 1949 or 1950. I need to find a marriage license and the name of the gentleman she married. It is the only way I can find her if I know her married name. She would be abt. 72 today if she is still living. I would appreciate any help on this. Phyllis

Phyllis, Rhona (note spelling) Sands died July 1972 at age 87. The listing, which ran in The Tampa Tribune on July 16, 1972, is on microfilm at the main library in downtown Tampa and must be viewed to know the exact day of her death The newspaper section is: Deaths- page B11, also FL Deaths-page B11. Maybe this is your Rohna? Perhaps someone who visits the downtown Tampa library regularly would volunteer to get a copy of the obit for you. Marie

Looking for date of death of ROHNA SANDS that died in Hillsborough co. Death would probably be after 1960. Thanks for any help. Phyllis

Wondering if anyone might be able to check an obit for me Name: William Joseph Theis Death Place: Hillsborough Race: W Death Date: 26 Nov 1981 Birth Date: 03 Aug 1918 I am looking for any family information on this man, hoping that he was born in NY and is one of my father's first cousin's.

Need information about Lawrence Brevard Norris born about 1887 in Mayport, FL He was in the 1920 Hillsborough County, FL census with wife Josie and son L.B. Jr. Lawrence Brevard Norris, Jr. born about 1917. I have been told that this family moved to Mulberry, FL where they owned a lumber company. Lawrence B. Norris, Sr. could be the son of Cavis / Caius S. Norris and Fannie Floyd. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Grace Patterson GraceEP@aol.com

I have just found the 1920 census for Hillsborough County in which my grandfather can be found on- It states that he was a Street Car Operator, does anyone on this list know how or if it is possiable to find some kind of record from the city of Tampa for the job my grandfather held- A book or something that may hold any info for him as an employee of the city or something- ? Thanks for any info that may at least lead me in the right direction- Peggy

Don't you love this subject line? It was in every mail in the digest mail I just received. This is a pet peeve of mine. Please, please change the subject line, preferably to show the surname you are researching so that those of us who are not interested can just delete them without missing out on good info, or so that you will not miss out on the info we could provide to you. Thanks a million......Winnette --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). Version: 6.0.372 / Virus Database: 207 - Release Date: 6/20/02

Peggy I just sent you a response to the e-mail you sent before... and yes, that would be him! I would like to be able to see all the other Burnhams too. Probably his wife, Maud Child Burnham is there also; perhaps children. Does it give any clue as to where he is buried? Thank you SO much for your help... This is very exciting to get a new piece in my huge puzzle. Pam

Peggy Thank you for any help you can provide. I have an obit for Grant but it is from an Ohio paper because he was born there and only moved to Florida during the last 20 years or so of his life. He died In March of 1942 around the 26th. By the way, Grant's nephew, my grandfather - Ralph - was an engineer on the Tamiami Trail! Pam

D.W. If you get answers to these questions outside of the list, would you mind please forwarding them to me. My great great uncle, Grant Burnham, died in Plant City, Hillsborough Co. and I believe is buried there, but couldn't get any online information. Pam Burnham ".PLEASE!
