From a local newspaper at the time of his death.
Records on Ancestry.com indicate that Steve Yacynich, whose name is also found as Yacynech and Yacynych, was born in 1878 and was actually about 60 years old at the time of his death, not 50 as stated in the obituary. He was born in Austria and emigrated to the United States about 1907 and became a naturalized citizen.
