Thank you, Sheila, and to those who responded and searched for a death notice or obituary. I volunteered to find Eva THOMPSON's burial since the descendant lives in MO. Eva is not interred at Hart Island; good suggestion though. Since she was a Catholic widow, then died in St. Vincent's Hospital, I only phoned Catholic cemeteries. Time to phone non-sectarian ones. Records were checked for THOMPSON and TOMPSON. Although she had family in MO, OH, and CAN, neither a death notice nor burial is there. She is not interred with NYC family either, or in the same cemeteries as family. Thanks everyone.

I forget the years records are now available online for Hart's Island, but I believe it does not go back as far as 1910. The NYC Municipal Archives has the burial records, but they are not indexed. Since you have the DC and a specific date, it might be possible to find the record at Muni Arch. See http://www.nyc.gov/html/records/html/archives/collections_cemeteries.shtml This is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but I've done crazier things. Your woman might also have been buried in Canada. Sheila ====NY-Irish Mailing List==== Don't forget to check out the NY-Irish mailing list website.
