I am looking for the obit’s for:

Juliana (Neydle/Geise) Zervas.
Died: June 6, 1964-Multnomah County, Oregon.

Mary (Neydle/Lensky) Moshofsky
Died: April 27, 1922-Cedar Mill, Washington County, Oregon

These two are sisters, their mother (Rosina Schubert Neydle) passed away shortly after giving birth to Juliana. The family legend is that than the father (Wenzel Neydle) committed suicide after his wife passed away and all four children (Frank, Elizabeth, Mary, Juliana) were adopted out to different families. When the girls got older they both moved from Wisconsin with their husbands to the Portland area. I am trying to piece things together and obit’s might really help.


I was also wondering where in the Portland or surrounding area can a person look up obit’s? I checked the Multnomah County Library and on their website it states The Oregonian microfiche starts in 1988. I would travel to the Portland area in the future if I could look up obit’s. I have about 10 other ancestors that I need obit’s for.

Thank you so much, any help is very much appreciated.

I did not find anything for Mary not even a funeral notice which is strange but sometimes next of kin wil have the body sent out of state but it usualy says that and there wasn't anything.
Juliana Zervas, there was a funeral notice for her NO OBIT. There was no husband listred so apparently he was already dead or divorced or something.
It does list 6 children by name, 14 grandchildren and 40 great grandchildren.
She is buried in Mt Calvery which is a catholic cemetery.
I can scan this but need to scan to your personal E. Kristeen Galloway

Kristeen,

Thank you so much. I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to do that for me. I would love for you to scan it.
Juliana's husband died in 1915. Actually one of Juliana's daughters married one of Mary's husband's relatives.

Thanks Again,

Leslie
