Snug in the pages of the Reese Bible is a funeral card for a Ima Lee Pedro, died June 1, 1976 in Kelseyville, California. Presumably this is a relative or family friend of a Reese family descendant who possessed the bible in the 1970s.
See my November 5th post 'A New Clue'. Because Kelseyville is not extremely far from Shasta, California, I want to connect (her?) to Jeremiah J Burgess and his wife Almira Reese, but I'm not having the quick results that I expected. Something doesn't add up.
Ima was not very old, having been born 6 June 1935. Because she misses the 1930 U.S. Census, the last Census to be publicly released, it makes it somewhat more difficult to connect her with parents, husband, children. Her tombstone in Kelseyville cemetery doesn't give any helpful family information either (other than her birthdate that I just mentioned).
