He died in Queens in 1972 and lived in Jackson Heights at the time. The Social Security Death Index lists the month and year he died, but not the day. In order to get a death certificate, I have to know the date he died. I know what cemetery he's buried in, but it's huge and I wouldn't know where to begin looking. He's not listed in the (very poor) database the cemetery has. I'd appreciate any and all suggestions. Thanks - Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
