The Siskiyou County Library has an index of obits listed online you can check. Go to the Library home page and click on local history, then on obits.
I found an obit listing in this index for Ilvia Ann Gates. Listed as being in the Siskiyou News on 2/9/1911. I did not see one for Timothy D. Austin, although searching in the name of Austin there were several hits.
My schedule does not allow me to go down to the library and find the obit right away, but if you will remind me I could possibly do it next week, if no one else volunteers. Send me a personal email at
Timothy Austin (Brother) is listed in the Evergreen Cemetery Index with the birth date of: 1825 and death date of 10/13/1901.
The Evergreen Cemetery (Yreka) Index also lists Ilvis Austin Gates (sister) in the index with birth date of: 1837 and death date of 1911.
In the database for Siskiyou County deaths, there is no listing for Timothy Austin. Did he die somewhere else and then was buried here later? I didn't see Ilva Gates in the death record either...
What other information do you have on these folks? Or are you just looking for obits?
