There is a place to email them at the bottom of the page. http://www.detroitpubliclibrary.org/featuredcollection/burton-historical-collection If you have the date of death, you can either get her death certificate from the City of Detroit or if your library participates in the Inter Library Loan program, you can get the Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press on microfilm to see if there is an article. The library also will look for a death notice but there is a fee. http://www.detroit.lib.mi.us/specialservice/detroit-newspaper-search-0 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
