Those were the listings given on find a grave. Presumably the contributor couldn't get hold of them but made a note. Probably Denver Public Library would be your best bet. If or when it opens.

Morning, I am going to contact the Denver Public Library ,Archives Dept, and see if they will scan & send me a copy of her Obit, which they have listed .....if & when it comes,I will share with you.

If you are also extending your research to the McLeod's..are you aware that Murdock Mcleod 1884 -1983 had a son named Archibald born c Nov 1910 in Erickson by his 1st marriage to an Etta O'Brien, (cannot find anything on her yet)
This same Archibald L McLeod was the death informant for Jessie H (McLeod) Harrison when she died in 1963 Victoria BC.

One other note  John McLeod c 1840-1917 he did not have the 2nd name Sailor.
Someone somewhere along the line mistook his occupation (Sailor) as a 2nd name and everyone else just copied, which is a big problem these days with researchers.

Thanks for reaching back out to me
      Cheers for now  Ann
