PEARL (KENT) MILLER-CORNELISON

Linda Steinke [RnLSteinke@aol.com] March 2004

I'm having trouble locating information on a niece of my g-grandfather. I'd like to see if you can check the cemetery books to see if she was indeed buried in the county and whether an obituary might be located. PEARL (KENT) MILLER-CORNELISON died January 28, 1983. The SSDI lists her residence as Newkirk. One family member tells me she is buried in Newkirk Cemetery. Her first husband was Peter Miller and her second husband Herb Cornelison. I have checked with the Newkirk newspaper, the Ponca City Library, and a mortuary in Newkirk without finding any information on her. I'd appreciate any help that you can give me.
