The number D 452 is correct, I found one Frederich S Dowling died in Phila on 4-10-1941 # 32523 also found one Dowling with no first name, at top of list died in Phila. on 1-1-1937 # 14732. Check these and I also noticed you should check the f's and m's for male and female no first names, did not check those.
