A couple confirmations needed.

I need a little bit of help confirming the years and places of death of a couple people. These would be:

Adelle Syre/Syr/Ross: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Syre-23

and her son, John: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ross-13257

A cousin posted on Ancestry that John died on February 11th, 1924 in Newburyport, Massachusetts. The same cousin gave me a date for his mother's death as being June 27th, 1904 in Manchester, NH.

I put in John's death as the cousin assured me it's correct. I haven't heard much about the mother save for the date. The birth dates are all accurate. I haven't been able to find much in Censuses and the death records on FS don't seem to have anything.  Does anyone have any avenue I can explore? Any help would be great. Thanks!

Thank you!!!!!! Not sure why the name is messed up. Not to mention her birth year.
On the image itself, it looks to me like Odile Cyr Ross.  It also says she died of old age in Notre Dame Hospital.  Possibly they just guessed on the date?
Possible. You can never trust Manchester hospitals. =)
