Subject: [ESSEX-ROOTS] Seeking Obit on Jeremiah Sullivan, West Newbury,MA 10 June 1882

I'm hoping to find someone in the area of West Newbury, Massachusetts and also hoping they know where to find what I'm looking for. Jeremiah (Jerry) Sullivan was born in County Cork on 20 Jan 1829. He was the son of Patrick O'Sullivan and Margaret O'Brien. By 1855 he and his brother Patrick had arrived in West Newbury/Newburyport where Jeremiah married Margaret Warren of County Kerry. On 10 Jun 1882, Jeremiah committed suicide at the age of 53 and was buried in Bridge Street Cemetery in West Newbury.

I don't have access to the subscription databases such as Ancestry so I'm asking: Is there someone in that area who could look up his obituary or let me know who to contact to get a copy?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
