I gave them the Charles Evans death dates, but obviously, I gave them the burial dates and not the death dates. But the library said they'd check for the obituaries three days prior and after the dates I gave. Seems they died a few days before the dates you gave me (which were the same as those the cemetery gave me as well). Wish I could make it to Reading today or sometime next week and visit both the cemetery and the historical society and get all the info I could in one day, but seems it'll be awhile till I can go. Or afford to. But I do have enough info to tide me over for a bit. I have alot I can look up on here, like taxlists and immigration lists. Although some might be incomplete or not extensive enough.
