How would I go about tracing a death and/or burial record for the following individual: Jacob Sheets (Sheetz) b. ca 1825 PA d. before 1880 In the 1860 census Jacob and family are listed in Seliinsgrove, Snyder County, where he is an "Innkeeper." In the 1870 census the family is listed as living in Sunbury, Northumberland County; his occupation is "Hotelkeeper." In 1880 his wife, Sarah A. (Weidenhammer) Sheets is listed as a widow, living in Chapman, Snyder County. I have a note that he may be buried in McKee Half Falls, which I believe is in Snyder County. Having trouble tracing Jacob's personal information, as well as ancestors. Any help would be appreciated. Will need addresses to write to, as I live in California. Thanks, Vicki

The Snyder County Genweb site is awesome and has a great deal of information, including cemetery records: http://www.rootsweb.com/~pasnyder/ Cemetery records can also be found on the Snyder County Archives page at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/pa/snyderp.html If you find out anything about obituaries or other death records, please let me know. I have a death in 1880 that I would love to find some record of!
