James PRIEST married Elizabeth Barton ? circa 1925. I assume it was in Berkshire Co. He supposedly died about 1928 and she died on 5 Feb 1941 in North Adams. Elizabeth Priest's death certificate lists her as Elizabeth Marshall Priest. It states she was age 57 born in London, England. It also states that she was 'buried in Vault' but no mention of a cemetery. I have just searched the listings for cemeteries in Berkshire Co and did not find any PRIEST surname listings. I am hoping there might have been an obituary for James and Elizabeth Priest I have read that North Adams is the largest town in Berkshire Co so I assume an obit would have been in a newspaper for that won. Any assistance on this brick wall will be truly appreciated. Regards, Bettye Heinrich

If you belong to ancestry.com you can search the North Adams Transcript for obituaries. I just did an exact search for her and did not find anything. If you google the North Adams Town Hall you will find a phone number for the cemetery office. They have all deaths on file cards and they will tell you which cemetery she is buried in, if she is buried in North Adams.
