    3. I would get someone check the local November 1910 newspapers in both areas for an obituary.Sometimes the obituaries ran a week or two later than the actual death.The deaths were sometimes reported in socieiy column write-ups too,but most were brief,but will back up the place and date of death. We found our ancestors obituary.It contained a gold mine of information on his movements & history.He was born in NY.moved to Ohio then Illinois and died in California.All of which proved to be correct.But even so,some obituaries have errors.For example my grandmother was listed as a niece in her step-grandfathers obit.We happened to know the relation and that helped spot the error. Happy Hunting, Jean
