The 2 obituaries offer different places of death. I opt for the English version for place of death. Also, 19 Jan 1934 is a Friday. 16 Jan 1934 is a Tuesday. To determine the date of death & date of burial, I used a perpetual calender, the age at death, the date of birth, & the days of the week for death and burial. - D.A.
