I also checked additional online sources and didn't fine her, though I did find a few Homer surnames -- very few. The sites that I searched are: http://greenlawn.delaohio.com/greenlawn/Greenlawn/index.htm (Green Lawn Cemetery) http://greenlawn.delaohio.com/Obetz/index.htm (Obetz Cemetery) http://www.genealogybug.net/Franklin_Cemeteries/combined_index.html Franklin County Combined Index (for published records) http://unc.cemeterydata.com/ (Union Cemetery) http://www.worthingtonmemory.org/cemeteries/SearchAll_search_form.cfm (Walnut Grove & Flint Union Cemeteries) Since the Ancestry.com gives the exact date of death (11 Jan 1964) and the death certificate number (02751) you might want to try one of the five ways to purchase a copy of the death certificate listed on http://www.odh.ohio.gov/vitalstatistics/vitalstats.aspx (Ohio Department of Health) I did find a death certificate (see attached below) for her husband found at http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=0 (Family Search). The certificate says that he was buried at Memorial [Burial] Park, now known as Sunset Memorial Park or Sunset Cemetery. It seems likely that she was buried there, too. There is contact information for them at http://www.genealogybug.net/Franklin_Cemeteries/sunset/sunset.htm or http://www.genealogybug.net/Franklin_Cemeteries/addresses.html Last, but not least, there is an obituary listed for him on the Columbus Library site. It appeared Weds., 8 Aug 1934. If you'd like to have a copy, let me know and I'll request it. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
