Cathy, I had some luck. It was something to do on a very rainy Sunday afternoon in Iowa; the search function didn't find her as Myrtle Hall in 1967 for some unknown reason, but after I found Robert's obit and her maiden name, a search for Hall and Cunningham did find her 1967 obituary. I also went ahead and found her with her family in 1880. Like I said, it's a dreary day here and this brightened it up considerably! The Progress, Clearfield PA, Wednesday March 1, 1967, page 2 MRS.
