Cindy; Did not find a DC or an obit for Samuel Alexander McDowell. I also did not find an obit for Samuel Arthur McDowell, but transcribed his DC. I did find something interesting but wanted to make sure that it was the right one before I transcribed it. I found an S. A. McDowell who married to Belle McKnight on 24 June 1877. Let me know if you want this transcribed. Here is the DC for the son: Source: San Diego 27-632 Name: Samuel A. McDowell 1028 S. 28th San Diego, CA Died: 27 October 1930 in San Diego Male, White, Married, Occupation = philatelist, age = 50 years 9 months 27 days Birth: 30 December 1879, Julian, CA FA: Samuel Alexander McDowell, UNK MO: Belle Perry, PA Cause: Mitral Insufficiency, Congestive Heart Failure, Pulmonary Edema Dr: Alex M.

Phil couldn't have put it better. I turn down 90% of of the obit requests for L.A. that I get or that I see. Almost none of them are ever found, and that is when I am going through the old microfilms. Joe --- Phil Van Camp <pvc@vancamp.org> wrote: > Here's the deal.

Here's the deal. The SSDI does NOT list the deceased's last address. It says where the death benefit was sent. Unless he was living with family, the two are not the same. CADI is more accurate for place of death. He may have been in a nursing home in LA, & the death benefit sent to a surviving spouse or dependant child in another city. Or he may have lived elsewhere, & gone to one of the two VA hospitals in LA county. Or, commonly the recipient of the death benefit may have signed it over to the mortuary. Which brings us to the obituary. In this area, the newspapers do not automatically print obits for everyone who dies. 1.) you have to pay for them 2.) it has to be submitted by a mortuary, or you have to prove the death to the newspaper 3.) some papers print them sooner, some later, so in some papers you have to search a longer time span than others. The best way to find an obit, is to get the death certificate info. contact the mortuary ask the mortuary if / where an obit was submitted for publication. If you are lucky, the mortuary will have a copy in their file. If you are luckier, & if he was not born in CA, they sent it to a hometown newspaper. If so, that's the easiest place to get a copy. Believe me, looking for obits in Los Angeles is not a job for your worst enemy. You might want to get his military file from NARA. It will list any dependants he had while in the service. The retirement info will include a spouse (if any) who would receive continuing benefits after his death.

Hi, New to this list and research, would like to know how to get a copy of my grandfather Duane Townsend Barnes' death certificate. He is buried at Riverside National Cemetery (next to March Air Force Base), he died April 4-24-1983. Soc Sec lists him as his last address in Anaheim CA, but his death certificate is listing Los Angeles. I would also like to know how can I get a copy of his obit. I use to live in Calif and if I had gotten into genealogy then this would have been much easier, but as usual I am a day late and a dollar short:-) Thanks in advance for help provided. Diana

Anyone requesting information from L.A. County records needs to know that there may be delays. The bus strike isn't settled yet and it looks like the County employees will be going out as well. With employees on the line they may have supervisors try to take care of things like birth and death certificates and marriage licences, but in the best of times Genealogy is a bottom of the barrel priority for clerks. bill.widrig@juno.com On Mon, 2 Oct 2000 17:27:44 EDT CbShaf@aol.com writes: > I would like to get a copy of the death certificate for the > following > woman: > Roberta Fields, b 28-Apr-1912/1913 in PA, d 21-July-1989 in LA > County, > she had been a member of the Church of Scientology.

Greetings SOCAL Folks, I would like to respectfully ask for your help..... Would very much appreciate if someone could check the early CA Death Index, ie. prior to 1940. I am searching for the date of death and a State File Number for the following woman: Wilhelmine (Minna/Minnie) HARTMAN/HARTMANN b. circa 1864, Posen Maiden name: PANKONIN Estimated year of death: 1934 Rumor has it that she is buried at Escondito (if that helps) She was a widow I would like to zero in on her death date and send to Sacramento for a death certificate. I have previously "donated" $9 to the State Registrar, on a wrong Mina Hartman. If someone could possibly provide me with one or several options, I would be very grateful. Thank You, Jannette in Colorado

These are two different places, in two different cities. Both have LOTS of and very different genealogical holdings. And each has a website. You can have half your research done on-line before you ever reach the library. More time in the reader room, yahoo! per ••• http://www.familysearch.org ••• the nearest FHL/FHC to Los Angeles is: 10741 Santa Monica Blvd WEST Los Angeles, CA Phone: (310) 474-2202 Hours: F-Sat 9am-5pm; T-Th 9am-9pm. NOTE: CLOSED SUN & MON also, sometimes closed for special meetings, CALL FIRST Probable the largest holdings outside SLC. I've only been to a few others and they were VERY tiny. While the Temple top can be seen for miles, the address is deceptive. The bus stop, is in front of the Temple. The little gate in front, for pedestrians only, may or may not be open. Do NOT count on it being open when you leave. And, the walk is all cement stair steps. The better route for peds is the same for cars. Go up the side street, Manning, to the east of the temple, then left, and past the back gate house. About one block past the back gate, the FHC is in the basement on the west/left side of the parking street. There is a sign, but it is small. Directions are on the website. The website usually shows the current month's schedule of classes and meetings. ••• http://www.lafhc.org ••• Not much in the way of nearby food so bring your own. There is a TINY room for eating, with a limited supply of "snacks" and sodas. [no caffeine] This facility is worth a few days, if you travel far. There is a motel across the street, in case you can do a TUE, WED, THU 9am-9pm... doesn't that sound wonderful? The Los Angeles Public Library which is IN Los Angeles, downtown, has a website ••• http://www.lapl.org ••• Parking is... well a bus or train is the better bet here. The genealogy/history stuff is down a few floors. The easiest entrance is on 5th street. The bathrooms are near that entrance. And, on each floor. The facility is HUGE! Worth at least one full day of research, say MON 10am-8pm. And, they have computers for on-line use, reserve time at the desk. Lots of eating places near by. The library is open various hours... even a few on Sunday. There are hotels in the area, but the prices would be high :-( NOTE: MTA [bus & train] drivers are on strike just now. But, the MTA has a website, with a trip planner. ••• http://www.mta.net ••• Okay, I've rambled enough. And, have figured out what I will do the 2nd week after I am laid-off next month. :-) Delightful Diggin', tricia

I just found the particulars about my Great Aunt and I wondered if anyone could look up an obit for me. Lucy Ellen Elliott FOWLER born 1/9/1871 died in Riverside, CA on 4/6/1950. Her brother, Henry H. ELLIOTT died June 7, 1947 in Elsinore. At the time of Henry's death he had a brother Charles also living in Elsinore and brother George living in Beverly Hills. If anyone could do a lookup on Lucy and Henry I would appreciate it. Also, if anyone knows of Charles and George I haven't been able to find a death date on either of them. Thanks, Taraleen

Hi everyone- I received so many responses, that rather than thank you all individually, it's easier to send a great big thank you to the list. Los Angeles is so huge that I guess, I was hoping the number broke L.A. down further into which area of L.A. Thanks again! -Linda :)

thank you, Linda, that's a big help :) Cornelia ----- Original Message ----- From: <RylFlshd@aol.com> To: <fenenga@mminternet.com> Sent: Saturday, September 30, 2000 1:25 PM Subject: Re: Los Angeles FHL > In a message dated 9/30/2000 1:23:52 PM Pacific Daylight Time, > fenenga@mminternet.com writes: > > > could someone please send me their hours of operation? > > thank you > > no, I don't have the L.
