Title: COMPLETED!
Post by: Genealiza on Saturday 14 October 17 19:10 BST (UK)

Looking for an obit for the gr. grandfather of my niece.  His name was Johns Hopkins Barrett--yes, it is Johns.  He was born in Philadelphia, 3 Nov 1893, the son of Edward D Barret II and Susanna Eiserman.  According to family history, he lived for a while in New Jersey, and I found an entry on the SSDI for a Johns Barrett who died Sep of 1975, who had the correct date of birth.  It stated that his last payment residence was Camden, NJ.  .

There are two here - https://courierpostonline.newspapers.com/search/#query=johns+barrett&ym=1975-09  Maybe if you play around with adding search words of the family, you'll be able to see more with the arrows.

Thank you Shelley--I should be able to attach some words.  Have been trying for days to find him.  My niece will be ecstatic.

Thank you again, Shelley.  I was able to get it all.  Now, I'll see if Florence is there.
