To Cherie & the list - The information of these deaths came from a file I
made of all the deaths printed in a column published at the first part of
each year for several years, submitted by the cemetery officials and
Washington Health Department, covering a period of about 1880 to 1916, when
I found the practice seemed to be discontinued. Cherie - I have nothing in
this file on the surnmames Fife, Tolbert or Faris. Nancy Giles
