Your mention of Culver IN nagged at me so I looked it up and surely this village had several names and is associated with a larger township of Union in Marshall Co. Since Newberry passed away in this area I looked around for obits that might give some clues. Bingo. Evidently your fellow may have been traveling and visiting his children after the death of his third wife. Looking at some Fulton Co IN obituaries [which is south of Culver and Marshall Co] there was the following in The News-Sentinel issue of Tuesday, March 10, 1942: "Mrs. Florence R. COOPER, 82 years of age, a resident of Argos, died at four o'clock this morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Lulu PETTY, in Hemlock, nine miles southeast of Kokomo. Death was attributed to old age and complications and resulted after an illness of only two days' duration. Florence Rebecca [LEAVERTON], daughter of Robert W. and Lida LEAVERTON, was born in Marion county on November 20, 1859. She had resided in the Argos community since 1913, moving there from Marion county. Her marriage was on Aprl 8, 1881, to Alexander COOPER, who died April 25, 1927. She was a member of the Dunkard church. Survivors are three daughters, Mrs. Lulu Petty, at whose home she died; Mrs. Sadie LONGLAND, Spearfirst, S.D.; Mrs. C. E. TAYLOR, Plymouth; four sons, W. O. COOPER, Plymouth; Alonzo COOPER, Tippecanoe; Robert COOPER, Argos; Newberry COOPER, Elkhart; one brother, Ora LEAVERTON, Hammond; 43 grandchildren and 35 great-grandchildren. One daughter, Mrs. Rosie HATTEN, died in 1916. Last rites will be held Friday afternoon, two o'clock, from the Grossman funeral home at Argos. Rev. Ernest TREBER will officiate and burial will be made in the Maple Grove cemetery, Argos. The body has been removed to the Grossman funeral parlors, where friends may call until the hour of the final rites. ===================================== NOTE: This may another trail to individuals who just may know all of the particulars dealing with Newberry`s death. If he did die in Marshall Co IN then there should be a death record in IN and not in OH. Notify Administrator about this message?
