Dear Listers,
If someone has access to the FL Death Index and would be
willing to look up the day of death for the following, I'd
be very grateful:
James Harley Hysler, died July 1968.
Also, Daniel Franklin Hysler died 1 Aug 1970, but I am
unsure of the city/county in FL.
I'd like to order their obits but need the above
information to do so.
Thank you for your time and efforts on my behalf.
Best regards,
Ann in Houston, TX

Dear Listers,
My search for my Great Aunt has led me to the City of Jax
directories. Sarah Elizabeth 'Lizzie' Parrish first
married Thomas Hysler. After his death she married a Mr.
McGee and her tombstone at Riverside Cemetery reads
Elizabeth Hysler McGee. I have no idea who Mr. McGee was,
when they were married, etc. Her obituary does not name
him. I have been unable to find them in the 1930 census
for Duval but expect the spelling to be the culprit.
Would anyone have the time to look in the Jax Directo
I am seeking some kind soul (SKS) to look up and copy three obituaries for me
from the Florida Times-Union in Jacksonville, Florida. I will gladly
reimburse a nominal expense in obtaining copies of the obituaries. You may contact
me by e-mail, using the address on this message and I will send you information
on the names of interest. I have the death dates for all 3 individuals and
know that the obits were published in the Florida Times-Union.
