Answer 2

The Brooklyn Eagle

has obits back to January on-line, but it looks like they just run obits for people who were prominent. They only have so much space and Brooklyn is a large city.

Mr. Holt may not have had an obit. Ordinary people in large cities often do not.

You could call the church to see which funeral parlor handled the arrangements, then call them to see if they put an obit in a small, neighborhood paper. If not, they may be able to tell you something from their records.
