This doesn't necessarily mean she was a resident of LA county, but thought you should be aware of it. Omelia Elizabeth Myrtle died 12 Dec 1986 Los Angeles county born FEMALE 12 Dec 1910 Pennsylvania mother's maiden name Lenhart Russell died in Kern county: Russell Myrtle died 19 Apr 1990 Kern county born MALE 4 Mar 1905 Pennsylvania mother's maiden name Mason If "Buddy" is a nickname rather than a given name, consider the possibility that the Russell MYRTLE listed in Mojave in 1993 through 1996 may have been Russell and Omelia's son. I found some information about Darlene, but don't want to post it in a public forum since she may still be living.
