Kathy:

I have many local reference books here at home, but could find no
reference to your William Samuel BECK. Apparently, he led a quiet life,
didn't vote, etc. Not in any of the early census indexes (1860, 1870,
1880, 1890). Would you like me to look for an obituary in the local
newspapers right after his date of death? What was his date of death?

I can also obtain his death certificate for you, if you are willing to
part with $8.00, and we find his date of death. (Note: I found that in
the new CADI on Rootsweb, he died on 5 April 1991. HE was born on 17
April 1869. His mother's maiden name was CARD.).

Do you know what he did for a living? When he came to Humboldt County?

Let me know what you want form here.

Regards,

Don Tunison-Campbell
Eureka, Humboldt County
