<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>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. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Happy Hunting</DIV>

<P></FONT>Hi Judy,<BR><<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?>><BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>Daraleen</P></DIV>
