Does anyone know the children of Gerald and his m/1, Phyllia Mary Nunn?
I should have backtracked and looked for her 9 Feb 1952 death in the Amherst
Daily News newspaper.
Patricia Phyllis is from m/1. Possibly also, Frederick Henwood
Gerald's m/2, Marian Helen Cormier's obit doesn't mention step-children.
