== Date of death / place of death confirmation for Albert Murray (golfer) ==

{{tl|resolved}}

Hello. I'm looking for any newspaper sources that verify that [[Albert Murray (golfer)]] did die on June 7, 1974 and where as well. I've found some sources that talk about his funeral, but not date of death. While [https://heritage.golfcanada.ca/hall-of-fame-members/albert-murray/ this] and [https://www.pgaofcanadahalloffame.com/hall-fame-members/albert-murray/ this] have the same date, neither has place of death.

Thanks! [[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 00:19, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

:{{ping|MrLinkinPark333}} I found [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/47122338/albert-murray/ this]. It doesn't give his date of death, but the article was published on Saturday June 22, 1974, and it says "Albert Murray, who died earlier this week at the age of 86 ...". Does "earlier this week" suggest he died between ~16 and 21 June? —[[User:Bruce1ee|Bruce1ee]]^{[[User talk:Bruce1ee|''talk'']]} 07:29, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

::{{ping|Bruce1ee}} I happened to already cite that article. If that's the case, then there should be something to indicate place of death. I would assume Montreal but not 100% sure. That timeline would make sense as his funeral was on the 19th per a June 20th 1974 Fort Worth Star-Telegram article. --[[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 16:53, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

::: Assuming that the funeral doesn't happen on the same day as his death, that narrows down his date of death to between ~16 to 18 of June. [[User:OhanaUnited|<b style="color: #0000FF;">OhanaUnited</b>]][[User talk:OhanaUnited|<b style="color: green;">^{Talk page}</b>]] 03:35, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

:[https://www.newspapers.com/clip/47308622/obituary-for-glenna-m-coons-aged-87/ Location and age match, looks like 17 June 1974]. This clipping [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/42597401/1974-red-gives-to-albert/ confirms his ___location]. Here is [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/47308790/the-spokesman-review/ an AP report confirming]. The source indicated [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/47122338/albert-murray/ above has the wrong age].'''<span style="background:#B1810B; padding:2px; border-style:solid; border-width:1px">[[User:Kees08|<span style=color:#FFFFFF;">Kees08</span>]][[User talk:Kees08|<span style=color:#FFFFFF;"> (Talk)</span>]]</span>''' 07:42, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

::Wow! Thank you for digging that up {{ping|Kees08}} :) Guess that was a typo then. --[[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 20:56, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
