Hi Everyone, Would some kind soul who has access to genealogybank do a lookup for me and email me the obit and/or story. I'm not sure of the date of death of this person, perhaps early 90's. Pauline Packer (nee Morrow) died in a house fire from smoking in bed. I am looking for the obit and the seperate story that appeared in the Philadelphia Inquirer and Philadelphia Daily news. Her son was Charles Packer and her husband was Charles Packer Sr. all from Philadelphia I believe. Thank you so very much. I checked the SS Death Index but can't seem to find this name with something near the early 90's. Patti

Lower Dublin was in Philadelphia. Roughly, it was (is) between Cottman Ave. and a line just South of Red Lion Road and the Montgomery County line and the Delaware River in Northeast Philadelphia. Cemetery returns from 1803 to 30 June 1860 are at the Philadelphia Archives and on "Family Search". Gene Stackhouse in Germantown Heights. An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.

You might want to try the Philadelphia City Death Certificates 1803-1915 on the FamilySearch. Here's the link: http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=collectionDetails;c=1320976 There are several Batezel listings there. I see Margaret died in Lower Dublin. I believe that is in Montgomery Co., PA.

Thanks to all who responded to my inquiry re death returns 1853 re Margaret Batezel. Indeed the Lower Dublin I was referring to is in Northeast Philadelphia. The location of the Batezel farm is posted in the office of Pennypack Environmental Center. Dorothy

JoAnn Get the death certificate for John E. Kelly from the State of Pa and on it, it should list his parents names. Susan

Another idea would be to post your ancestor on FIND A GRAVE and request a photo of his grave. There must be many volunteers in the Philadelphia area. I have close to 100 ancestors and relatives I have posted to FIND A GRAVE and volunteers have been great about taking photos.

I discovered this year that my husband's gg-grandparents had been buried first at Fernwood and then reinterred with other family members at Arlington. The date of burial at Arlington is the same for all since they were reinterred on the same date. They did not have the original dates of burial or death. Fernwood provided that information.
