MCCabe Store in Roselia

Surnames: MCCabe
I once met the woman who owned this store before she sold it and wondering if she is still alive. An obit would be nice, or any information about her. When I met her she was in the process of selling, and I only had a few minutes as she was getting ready for a party of some sort. Probably because she was retiring from the store.
Also looking for ANY male descendant of William D. McCabe who has people in that area. Wanted for a DNA test. My g.grandfather wasa this Williams brother and I want to make sure we are from the Owen McCabe line. This is a way for me to find out as William may be the only brother who has a male descendant living. Any help greatly appreciated.

Yes, that is a brother to my g. granfather. I have that info. Trying to see if there is a male descendant for a DNA test in that area. I know he had sons.
Also looking for the McCabe lady who owned a grocery store in Roselia. She sold it. Want to know if she has died, as she was elderly when I met her. Trying to find out if she is related to Wm.

Just pay it forward when you can.

You may be able to obtain Arthur's obituary from:

http://www.secstate.wa.gov/library/ask.aspx

Send them an email and they will search for free and when found they scan the image and email it to you. It usually takes about 2 weeks.

Good Luck!
Laura
