The Importance of Ephemera

My 2nd cousin 3x removed cousin Besse Pearl (Greene) Modesitt's funeral card, thanks to Ancestry user robpower11.

I found this gem while I was straightening up my Tibbetts relations.  There was little information available online for Besse Greene, daughter of Samantha Eva Tibbetts.  I couldn't find her obituary in the three newspaper databases I subscribe to, and her death date was only available as 1969 (FindAGrave). 

But thanks to another Ancestry user I was able to fill in her death date and place.



I share George Tibbetts, Mary Burnight, John Hill Messinger, and Mary Martha Miller with Besse Pearl (Greene) Modesitt.
