Just tell them that you could not locate it in the Necrology database BUT your
sources indicate that the person did die on such-and-such date in Cleveland.
They know that their Necrology database is not complete and will have no
problem with such a request. They usually check the papers for a period of
about a week after the date of death. Don't be surprised if it takes 3-4 weeks
to hear back from them. I don't know what their backlog is these days.
