If it is the St. Louis Metro area, I would guess that the St. Louis papers would have carried the obit/death notice. If not, I would contact a library in Affton (use a google search) and see what the local papers are and if they are available for that time period anywhere in the library system. I live in Affton. I'm 12 miles south of the St. Louis Arch along highway 55. Are you trying to find someone in a Cemetery or at one of the local funeral parlors? I'll be glad to do the look ups. I OldeNtQer
