    The Social Secureity record that appears to be for our Verna is confused.  The image is not available for viewing, and the transcription in Ancestry has two state names.  It appears the correct location of death was Gate City, Scottt County, Virginia.  It is not clear why the name California is added.

    An obituary confirms that this Verna Doris Bush in Virginia is the same Verna Bush.  The full obituary is no longer available, but the index reports that her obnituary was published in the Fresno, California, Bee newspaper on 6 March 2008.
