Does anyone have access to the May 26th 1958 edition of the Weirton Daily Times? I am looking for an obituary for Martha Alice King.

According to the online obit index from the Mary H. Weir library the obit appeared in that newspaper. I have the ones from May 26 and 27. All they say is that she died and when the funeral was to be.

any help would be greatly appreciated,

Kathy

Were you able to get the obituary for Martha King?
