WILTON 7/4/1914. HIS PARENTS WERE JOHN AND ANNA. HE ATTENDED SCHOOL
IN WILTON. FAMILY MAY HAVE MOVED TO FARGO AROUND LATE 1930. HE HAD 2
BROTHERS JOHN & PAUL. JOHN MAY HAVE BEEN THE ELDEST , NO FAMILY
AS FAR AS I KNOW, HE MAY HAVE DIED IN A VA HOSPITAL IN ND. PAUL may
have been the YOUNGEST, I THINK HE MAY HAVE BEEN IN THE ARMY? HE MAY
HAVE MOVED TO AZ SHORTLY AFTER WW11,MARRIED AND HAD 1 CHILD. HE DIED
IN THE LATE 40'S. TWO SISTERS, MARIE/MARY? I have NO INFO on HER.
CHRISTINE/CHRISTINA MARRIED PETER MARTIN. HIS FATHER JOHN DIED LATE

HIS SISTER CHRISTINE. CHRISTINE HAD TWO SONS RICHARD&ROBERT.
THEY'D BE IN THEIR LATE 50'S EARLY 60'S. MY DADS SS# WAS ISSUED IN ND

Lillian Tercott. I am not sure if this is the correct spelling
of Tercott. They had two children, Kathy, who lives in Florida and
Patrick, who is now about 47 years old. I am looking for marriage and
death certificates for Grover and Trevora. They would have been
married in the 30's or 40's and Trevora died sometime in late 50's or
early 60's. Grover died late 70's or early 80's. I am also interested
in contacting any relatives of theirs. My father Patrick, was placed
in foster care in the 50's after Grover and Trevora divorced, Trevora
may have been committed to a psychiatric hospital in Jamestown in the
50's. I would appreciate any information you can find, they both
lived in Fargo, ND.
