Or how about where Alonzo Hoag died? Do you have his obituary? If you don't, you can sometimes get good starting places from the obituary. Or, if you know where they lived that helps. It's possible to look for them in census records. Those records can tell a lot. The census records are available for 1930, 1920 and at ten year intervals before that, like 1910. No later census records are open to the public. You need to have some idea where to look first. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
