Bryan, I have found that the funeral home keeps very good records as they submit the information for the obituary and the death certificate. You may want to write them(if they are still around) to see what records they have. Also, since you know he cemetery name I would write them to see what information they have(maybe other family member burried there age of death etc). I also read there is a site you can find Philadelphia obituaries. If I run across it again I will send it to you. Sandy in Mass
