Dorothy May Eklund

  Research Notes:

1. Findagrave, post,

records birth, death

plot: Block:2, Lot:20, Sp:9
husband, Lot 20, Sp 10
son Edward Jr, Lot:20, Sp:2

2. NO obit/funeral/death notice (died in Aug 2003)

- in Aug on Star Tribune (I reviewed a number of pages)
- on Genealogybank, not indexed on Pioneer Press
- legacy.com

BUT there is an obit posted on the Star Tribune, with the name Dorothy E Peterson - husband and children all match. So, either the middle initial is a misprint or she was also known with another middle name.




3. obit notices for her husband
- see file for one
- the other, 10 Jun 1990, page 36, col 7: this notes the name of the husband's of his daughters and the location of their residences in 1990
