Especially if one is not even sure when, or where they died. For example, I just did a search of the Social Security Death Index on Ancestry and found nothing regarding the death of any Busby in Texas in 1997, much less an Argle Busby in Jan 1997 in Arlington, TX. What Social Security Death Index did you use to find that he had died, and the date? Most likely his obituary, if there was one, would have been sent to his home town newspaper. Do you know where that might be?
