An obituary! It was so obvious that I missed it. I had
a "DUH" moment there. Someone suggested
http://www.findagrave.com
I'm going to use that from now on.
I also was told that death certificates do not have
the place of interment.
Thank you for all your help.

Debra,

A couple of people e-mailed me offlist to get pointers to burial and
obituary archives.
Following are a list of resources I know about, along with pointers to
ResearchBuzz writeups
when available. This is by no means complete; these are just the ones I
know of off the top of my
head.

Hope this helps!

Tara
