    2. I am looking for a PA obituary and I don't know the date; my family lost track of one of my uncles years ago. His name is Aaron William or possible William Aaron McKeever/McEver. The family called him Will. He was born in 1900 plus or minus 5 years. His parents are Nolie Dalton McKeever and Dona Riales. I've searched everything on the net, but come up empty. I'm hoping that some kind soul in PA will have access to things that aren't on the net and can find my Uncle Will. Even if you can't find him, but are related to a McKeever line and want information, please contact me. God bless you! Betty
