I'm researching Family Tree information, most of which I have to research & discover over long distances. Whew! What a challenge. :-) If anybody can give me good suggestions for finding archived information from small town local newspapers, I would really appreciate that. Most of the on-line newspaper archives that I've found thus far, contain information for larger cities, but small community newsprint is difficult to find. At the moment I am researching "Joy O. Lower". This lady died suddenly in a train/car accident on or about 08 JUNE 1964. Joy O. Lower is buried in the IOOF Cemetery in Orland, CA. Her husband was injured in that tragic train/car accident in 1964. I am looking to find Joy O. Lower's Obituary & I would also like to find any newspaper articles that were published concerning the train/car accident that she & her husband were involved in. Here is the vital information that I have thus far:

Joy O. (MURPHY) Lower
BD: 12 APRIL 1928
DD: 08 JUNE 1964
Death Location: Glenn County, CA
Burial: IOOF Cemetery, Orland, CA

Dates Data is from California Death Index.

Thanks for any info & assistance you may be able to provide to me.

Most sincerely, Patricia Hogge in Bremerton, WA
