Hi Dave:
I have her name as Mary Elizabeth (Canning) Pearson and that she died
1977-09-18.
I also have her sister, Rebecca Jane, as dying on 1976-09-18 which seems
slightly suspicious to me. Neither date is confirmed.
That's all but hopefully you can find an obit for her with the death date.
Thanks,
Eric
