Kathryn's posting for the June 22, 2011 Oxford Journal Newspaper includes the following item:
Fifty Years Ago
Thursday, June 22, 1961.
Died - Don G. MILLER, 66, Oxford, June 5.
Does anyone happen to have an obituary for Don? I believe he is:
Donald Garfield Miller, born 1894, son of Joseph "George" Miller & Sarah "Amelia" Harris
I believe one of his daughters was Grace Miller, wife of ____ Ladner
I'd like to learn the given name for Grace's husband and his birth/death dates and then Grace's birth date.
Thank you for your help,
Gerry
