The Social Security Death Index lists his birthdate as 10/15/21 and his death as May 1977, not '76. Has the error in his death year kept them from finding his obit? You might check as this website suggests. Old Newspapers are simply a goldmine! You can find obituaries and death notices, mining accidents, travel information, gossip, marriages and so much more. The Illinois Historical Library in Springfield holds all surviving Illinois newspapers on microfilm. If you know the date of a death, marriage, accident or other event, the library will be happy to make copies for you. 2 requests are allowed at one time (and they follow this rule, so only send 2 requests!). They accept requests by U. S. Postal mail and by telephone. Contact information and a link to a searchable database of surviving newspapers held at the library can be found on our Illinois Research Help Page at: http://www.iltrails.org/ilrehelp.htm At 12:13 AM 6/25/2004, you wrote: >Walt Haase, owner and publisher of the Staunton Star-Times (has been so >helpful to me) is sending me obits for my brothers John and Joe and >William Noll of Staunton is kind enough to send me an obit of Audrey >Everts Noll.
