    3. I am seeking help in gaining information on Raymond and Kathleen VANIDOUR. They are referenced on Ancestry.com and census records. Ray was a sailor, born in Amhersburg, Ont, and good friends with Harry Coulby of the ship of the same name. He shows on the 1930 census for Cleveland and was supposedly highly connected with the Interlake Steamship Line of Cleveland. Kathleen, nee FOX, was born in 1890 and died Dec 13 1996. Ray was her 2nd husband and she brought into the marriage a son named Ridgley whom Ray adopted. They both show in Cleveland in the early 1900's and Kathleen seems to have been quite the socialite. Ridgley, with whom I had correspondence for a few years, recently died in Germany. Unfortunately while he gave me some great information they are just leads but little in answers. I do not know when Raymond died. He may have died in the 1930 in England but I can find nothing to confirm/deny that. I have tried to obtain a Cleveland newspaper to get Kathleen's obit but I can't get it through interlibrary for out of country. With her having lived to 106 years an amazing story must exist on her that would give me an idea/lead to more info on Raymond. Even on her 100th there must have been a profile. So my question is for assistance in obtaining an obit for Kathleen. Can someone assist me. Robert G. Vanidour London Canada
