Research log	October 9, 2026 Note: Google search: Irene Roberts Burkdoll 1916-2003. Sourced, grade B. Google search: Irene Roberts Burkdoll 1916-2003. Sourced, grade B. Find a Grave: Irene Roberts Burkdoll, born 17 Jul 1916, died 1 Jan 2003, buried Smith Mountain Cemetery, Dinuba, Tulare County, California. Death date agrees; burial added. CONFLICT: birth 6 Jul 1916 (this record) versus 17 Jul 1916 (Find a Grave). Left as recorded. Source S76 retitled: its title was a citation note ("living in the William Light household"); it is the 1920 census of Snyder, Kiowa County, Oklahoma. Later search: Smith Mountain Cemetery burial list (CAGenWeb): "Burkdoll, Irene, block 2, row 2C, space 28, 7/6/1916 - 1/1/2003". This agrees with the recorded birth, 6 Jul 1916, against Find a Grave's 17 Jul 1916.
