Death June 6, 1890 Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, United States   2b 2a
Event Note

There are three records of Michael's death available online. One from the City of Cleveland, and two from the Probate Court, Cuyahoga County. The date of death differs on each. I have accepted the City record, since that was recorded first. The county would make their copy or copies from the city's record.
Each record adds a bit of information that the other two don't have.
