Death Record Missing

[*Sandra*]

Have you written to the cemetery that shows Mother Lawrie 1901 ?  Perhaps they have further information or a date which could help.
 
Or try writing/emailing -  Milwaukee County Genealogical Society - volunteer researchers will search  for a fee of $5.00 per name, per source

Might be a volunteer on the RAOGK list which is worth a try -

I've refrained from writing because I'm wondering if for some reason, they just weren't registered. Her daughter Margaret (Maggie) doesn't seem to have a death record either in 1870. The only thing I'm hoping (in vain!) is the Veasey parents name on the death record- however James Lawrie's death in 1904 doesn't show his parents either. It's one of the only ways I might be able to make some progress into a very complicated Veasey tangle!

It costs nothing to e-mail the RAOGK volunteer and ask the questions ? You never know they may be able to help.

Thank you both so much! Maybe one day I will order the certificate from America- it may include more info than indexed on familysearch!

I'm searching for the death of Mary Lawrie in 1901 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
I know that her husband, James Lawrie, died there in 1904.
Mary was born approximately in March 1830. While there is a death record for James, and most of her children, I cannot find anything for her, apart from her gravestone in a burial site for 'mother Lawrie' who died in 1901, alongside her husband.
If anyone could find her death, as I have drawn up many blanks, I would be so grateful! I'm really hoping this will have her parent's names on the death certificate- as this would help me solve a two year old brick wall!

Here's a wonderful article about the couple and their 50th Anniversity. The article gives their full DOB birth, where they were born, what their parents did for a living, when they married and mention of their 9 children. Also there is a picture of the couple.

Will PM you the article.
