I am searching for the burial site in 1920 of Lovina/Lavina/Lavinia Young, wife of William Benjamin Young of Manistee, Michigan. Family records state she was born as Lovina Snider, daughter of Peter Henry and Eliza (Grigg) Snider on April 30, 1855. She married William B. Young on 20 September 1874 in Pleasanton, Manistee County, Michigan. She died April 14, 1920 supposedly in Manistee County, Michigan, but I cannot find a death record in Seekingmichigan.org or a burial site on findagrave.com for her. I assume there must have been a newspaper obituary for her because she and her husband lived on Clay St. in Manistee. Please, can anyone help me find an obituary or a burial site? I did notice that in death court house record (index) there was a Lorina Young, and I wonder if perhaps that was her record. Thank you for helping me, Janice

Did Lovina marry???
WHAT was her married name????

She should be burried under her married name & not her maiden name.

I am sorry if my message was not clear. Her maiden name is Snider or Snyder. Her married name is Young.

Thank you so very much for posting this. I will now go to Findagrave.com to enter a biographical entry for her. I truly appreciate your efforts. I live in the southern United States and rarely get to Michigan, so this is especially appreciated. Again, thank you, Janice
