lol I just fixed it before I read your post, but thanks!

ha ha so that's one Suggest A Correction I can ignore.

Were you able to left the image of his death certificate already, for your records?

I could read it after I clicked on the image a couple of times. I went back and saved it. Thanks so much.

I still need to find more on Frederick Hathwig (or Mathwig) Haessly. 1899 - 1968.

ok, I found his death image on Family Search, just not sure which of the hundred Jacobs he belong to lol.
