*How to solve a mystery (attaching records) - pushed back & combined due to CRUISE!

 perhaps merge this topic with Pruning Your Family tree (duplicates and merging)! The combined title could be "The simple mathematics of family history" since we are either adding or subtracting.

For example: finding this obituary for Charles Francis "Mick" McGarry G6SJ-MLD

The Youngstown Vindicator Memorial Obituary:

NORTH LIMA – Charles F. McGarry, 82, of Assumption Village in North Lima, formerly of Poland, died Friday morning at the nursing home.

Charles, also known as "Mick," was born March 10, 1928, a son of William and Nellie Baker McGarry.

He was raised in Campbell, and was a 1946 graduate of Campbell Memorial High School. He worked at the cost accounting department of the Youngstown Sheet & Tube, retiring in 1984 after 37 years of service.

Mick loved baseball and football and was a fan of the Cleveland Indians and the Cleveland Browns. When his family was young, he loved taking his daughters on road trips throughout the United States.

He leaves two daughters, Kelly Turnbull of Greenville, S.C. and Kim (Richard) Salmen of Canfield; three sisters, Marilyn (Tom) Lapaze of Boardman, Janet Wilcox of Durham, N.C. and Eileen (Stanley) Fiorini of Port Charlotte, Fla.; two grandchildren, Rachelle Turnbull of Seneca, S.C. and Richard Salmen Jr. of Canfield; and one great-granddaughter, Samara Turnbull.

Besides his parents, Mick was preceded in death by an infant son, Kevin; one sister, Donna Tofil; two brothers, John and Bill McGarry; and two infant sisters, Roseanne and Phyllis.

Funeral services will be Tuesday at 11 a.m. at the Cunningham-Becker Funeral Home, Poland. Interment will follow at Lake Park Cemetery.


Will add several people to his family tree! (6 siblings, a son and a daughter)
