    1. [PSRoots] Collins FH records
    2. Mike and Cynthia Baxter
    3. A while ago, there was a request for a funeral record from Collins FH on Harvard in Seattle, about 1904. Thru the mergers and acquisitions of the funeral homes, we're starting to think that these records have become lost. Stu Collins owned not only the funeral home in Seattle, but a casket company up in Everett as well. The businesses were sold to George Jaread who then sold to Cassidy. This is why everyone thought that PWC in Everett had the records of Collins FH. But they don't. Honest. Kathy went up to the attic and looked her self! We (and I mean "we" by all of us at Bleitz, Wiggins & Sons, PWC, Evergreen-Washelli, Acacia AND the Washington State Funeral Directors Association) do not have any idea as to where the Collins FH records went. A strong possibility is that they are still in possession of the Collins family. So there you go, some news, but not good news. I will keep my ear to the ground and will let "Y'all" know if and when I hear of anything in regards to Collins FH. Thanks for the patience!!! And Happy Sleuthing!!! Cynthia Baxter
