Hi there
I'm trying to find the Death Notice and/or an Obituary for Eugenie to complete her life-story in my tree. She was born Eugenie Dickie Kirkland on 18 May 1920 in New York, and died 4 Feb 2008 in Sacramento, California. She married Arthur J Deacon, a printer, on 7 July 1955 in San Mateo County, California. I believe she lived in Winnipeg, Canada in her early years as her brother William was born there.
I'm almost certain a "RootsChatter" can come up trumps with something.
Regards

Hi Sandra
I'd picked up on that snippet, thanks. I don't understand how hundreds of newspapers can give free access to their archives but the ones I'm looking for always seem to impose a charge >:(
I'm really hoping for "a random act of human kindness" here by someone local who could maybe access the Sacramento Bee archives ::)
Appreciate your prompt reply though.
