Rochelle, Check www.funeralnet.com and find the funeral home names/phone numbers for the different towns. Call and ask if they were in business, and if so, did they handle the arrangements. If they did, ask if they would send you their funeral record. Since it was back in the early 1900s, I doubt that there would be much information, but....funeral home records are VERY GOOD sources of genealogical information. The more recent records have quite a bit of family info, and some even list cause of death, and the cemetery, plot, and space number where the person is buried Good luck! Keep Well! Do Good Work! Keep in touch! ciao, Ron
