Looking for obit of Urban Hartman NORRIS, died Los Angeles 9 Aug 1954. Born abt 16 Jul 1856, Hancock Co., OH. Spouse at death was Ellen Dorthia THUNNISON. He was a Medical Doctor. Thanks, Dave Norris in VA norrisd@erols.com

Searching for ancestors of BILLY DEAN FINKENBINDER, who lived in LA, Ca in 1934. He was the step bro of my grandmom, Frieda Flora Gullett-Wiesenthal-Cornic. Frieda Flora moved to San Diego in 1941 with Cleo Cornic, her husband. Frieda Flora Gullet (maiden name) was originally from Ks, and I also believe the Finkenbinder family came from Ks to Ca too.
