Would anyone happen to have obits or newspapers for the date of Sept. 7, 1880 or few days thereafter? or access to death certificates?

Oliver Perry Root born 17 OCT 1822, died 7 SEP 1880 -- and Adolphus Root, son of Ora Root born 26 FEB 1844, and also died the same day Sept. 7, 1880. (Hannah Morton 1823-1902) was Perry's wife) All three are buried together at Middleport Hill Cemetery.

Curious to know who Adolphus Root was, as have no record of Ora and certainly unless an epidemic seems strange for them to die on the same date
Any help would be appreciated.
