Question:

Obituary? Info?

My ex died in California on Aug. 12, 2005, his name was Gregory Allen Porter, born June 15, 1951. I have not heard from him in several years and cannot locate any of his family to find out info on how, where, etc. he died. I have found his name in SS death index but would love to know what happened to cause him to die or even an obituary. I have searched the net for obits but have not found anything. His last place of residence was Escondido, CA. His parents were Otis and Nellie Porter. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Try the message board on Rootsweb. Choose U. S., then California, then the county that Escondido is in. Sometimes there are people who monitor the boards and will help. It is called RAOGK. Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness.

Rootsweb does not require a subscription. When you put a message on Rootsweb's message board, it will automatically go on Ancestry.Com's message board.

Also you can do the same for Genealogy.Com. I don't believe posting on the message board requires a subscription.
