Hi Elsie,
I do not live in Elko County so can't do the footwork for you obituary request.
You should have a full date when asking for research. If they charge for the
service, it will be by the hour. I looked in the archives to see if Grace
PLATTEN is in the records. This is the url address:
http://usgwarchives.net/nv/elkoarc.htm You might find her here.
The Elko County Library is a great place to do research. They have the local
papers on microfilm and the best readers. The last time I was there they did
not do research, but I've had people report that they asked and the people
there did help. Here is their contact information:
Elko County Library:
720 Court Street
Elko, NV 89801
775-738-3077
Another resource is the Northern Nevada Museum (below). They have been given the
records
ffrom Burns Funeral Home. This funeral service has been in Elko for many years.
Here is contact information for Burns Funeral Home that is on the web. Burns

This is contact information for Northern Nevada Museum. They do charge for look
ups so I'd do the research before contacting them. They have a slew of records
for Elko County and have been helpful in the past.
