I have come across a list of interments in the above cemetery, two of which are Joseph D'Amato and wife Mildred who are in my family tree.  They appear to have died on the same day.  I was wondering whether anyone has access to any Philadelphia newspaper that might have reported an accident or have their obituaries please?

This is the link:

Thank you for any help.

I found a reference to Mildred's (age 85) obit:

Delaware County Daily Times
25 Nov 2002

Primos, Upper Darby, PA

I didn't see one for Joseph and I don't have access to this newspaper.

update:
Still need this obit!

Thank you for your help with this.  At least I know which newspaper it is in now.  I don't have access to Newspapers.com because I live in the UK and don't have a credit card (nor does anyone else in my family) to pay for a subscription and there is no other way to pay.

I just found a reference to Joseph A D'Amato --same paper, 3 Sep 1998.  Looks like he may have been reinterred when Mildred died, or they were both cremated and put in adjoining vaults.  Joseph's reference was with Genealogy Bank, Mildred's was with Obits.com.  Maybe someone with access can find them for you.  They probably both appear in those two databases.

update:
This REFERENCE to JOSEPH'S death is the wrong Joseph A D'Amato.

Thanks so much for this Genealiza.  This helps explain the same date burial I found on USGenWeb.

Genealiza, could you please send me the link to the reference about Joseph A D'Amato as I can't seem to call it up myself!

Thanks.

I believe Mildred and Joseph had 1 son but afraid I don't know his name.
