Obit Lookup for Burtis Adelbert Bennett d. 1902

Burtis A Bennett married Anna I Yenney sometime between 1900 and 1902 (see "The History of Ludlow, Massachusetts, with Biographical Sketches of Leading Citizens" etc. online).

Burtis died 21 April 1902.

I'm researching Anna, who was a school teacher in the area for several years, and hope there is an obit for Burtis since he is listed as part of a prominent Ludlow family, which might tell me a bit more about him.

Many thanks for any help,
Jeannie

Burtis married Anna in 1902. I see two records in the Mass Archives, one is Ludlow and one in Norhtampton for both. If you want nest time I am downtown I can search for an obituarysince you provided me with the actual date of death. There is also a new history and genealogical library that opened in Springfield and there is a family history library I believe in Ludlow. You can also try the local library. I live in Springfield so I may only be able to find an obitaury although obits were not indexed in the newspaper at that time. Let me know.
