Kay, I don't have access to California news papers but I have found some other information on the Livinggoods and Falkenbachs that might prove useful. Are you sure that he wrote granddaughter and not Goddaughter? I looked in the California Death Index and noticed this entree: Name: LOVINGGOOD, GEORGE OWEN Social Security #: 289169694 Sex: MALE Birth Date: 7 May 1923 Birthplace: MISSOURI Death Date: 6 Sep 1992 Death Place: ORANGE Mother's Maiden Name: FALKENBACH Father's Surname: Falkenbach and Lovinggood are not common names.
