Hello all! Usually I come onto here from my other account helping others, but this time around, I need help with a sibling of one of my ancestors to knock down a brick wall and put some info to rest.

Joseph G Donovan, husband of Gertrude.

Here’s what I need some help with.

1. I have 0 obituary for him. There might be one on GenealogyBank Historical Newspapers Obituaries, but I lack an account to see that.
2. I cannot find a resting place for him, and no one alive from my family knows either. I want to link him and his many siblings together on Findagrave and cannot do so until I figure out where he was buried.

Thank you all for your help or your time reading. I can clarify any and all information.

Meet **Joseph Donovan.** He was born on January 26, 1909, in Somerville, Middlesex, Massachusetts, to Jeremiah Joseph Donovan (1882-1948) and Mary Estella (née Burchill) Donovan (1887-1947). Joseph married Gertrude sometime between the 1920’s to 1935, and Joseph’s appears on every census that has been released to date (within his respected time frame). He died sometime in 1962, and, according to my family and those who knew him, died without children and still married.

Here’s my issues:

1. I have no clue about his wife, where she is from, or her story. The census data shows she was born around the same time he was, in the same area, and that she never worked in her life. No clue on her death date.
2. I have 0 obituary for him. There might be one on GenealogyBank Historical Newspapers Obituaries, but I lack an account to see that. *If someone could find that for me, you have my enteral respect!!!*
3. I cannot find a resting place for him, and no one alive from my family knows either. I want to link him and his many siblings together on Findagrave and cannot do so until I figure out where he was buried.
