Have you all checked Ancestry or Newspapers.com?

This research was done about 10 years ago and many of these sources have been supplemented since then so they might bear fruit today. Poland's mother was Susie (widow of Levi), who died Oct. 4, 1934, in Lynn, MA (no obit in Lynn papers). Poland grew up in Maine.

I’ve recently taken an interest in genealogy and have done well in finding birth/death dates. I have accounts/subscriptions to several major services and will have a look.
