[or-roots] Newspaper Article (Fanny Hedden)

[Eugene Melvin]

Hi,

I have been able to order microfilm copies of out of state newspapers as well as those in Oregon beside the Oregonian from the county library. (Multnomah County Library has a complete set of the Oregonian at its main branch)  I just ask the Librarian for help.  It usually takes a couple of weeks and then I usually have those microfilm newspapers for a couple of week to view.  And it is a lot easier then going to or contacting a local towns library.  

Happy Hunting

Hi Judy,
<<Fannie Henderer Hedden Husband John Fannie killed in car wreck - car went into the Umpqua River near Reedsport we think the date is April 1933. Can someone confirm death date, and any other pertinent information? Would There have been a coroner's inquest? Newspaper article?>>

The Oregon Death Index shows the death date of Fanny Hedden as 01 October 1933 in Douglas County. There may or may not have been a Coroner's Inquest depending on the circumstances. You will need to contact the County Clerk of Douglas County to find that out.

There was probably a newspaper article, most likely in the Reedsport paper.  The Reedsport Public Library surely has the paper on microfilm for that time period and would, for a small fee send you a copy of the article.
