Can some kind soul please look up some birth annoucements in the newspaper for Arch E. Pope born 1913 in Fall River, MA. Caryl Tolin Pope born 1 nov 1914 in Fall River, MA. Russell howard Pope born 12 Sep 1917. (Parents of these children were Dr. Arch E. Pope and Mary Dolin Pope). Any info on any of the family members would be deeply appreciated. I would also appreciate any names and address of newspapers at that time. Also the name and address of the local library, genealogical or Historical society. Thank You so much.
