Obituary of George Buckingham
« on: Tuesday 11 May 21 09:18 BST (UK) »
Hello , I noticed on my world ancestry search that there is supposed to be an obituary for a George Buckingham ,spouse Ruth M on U.S. Newspapers .com. I am wondering if this is indeed a notice of my Alfred George  Buckingham who died in June 1980 ?
Would appreciate a look up if anyone can access please
Regards
Alan

Would be handy to have some details of your George or Alfred George Buckingham.  When was he born ?

Couldn't see a June 1980 entry but there was this one ?

The Journal Meriden, Connecticut 8 Oct 1959, Thu    Page 2

Thanks Sandra, mine is the Devon one, I guess just a coincidence in U.S . that they had same spouse christian initials but not my relative.

Ancestry hints throws up very obscure links sometimes
