I would appreciate this so much. I really don't know if this is too much to ask of anyone. Maybe it's too difficult in a city as large as Los Angeles. I have two great-aunts, Margaret Helen Cullen b. 8-2-1872 in Randolph County, Illinois d. 11-20-1955 in Los Angeles Mother: Mary Roche Father: John Cullen Katherine Cullen (Isora) Vallejo (Isora may be listed as her first name) b. 8-18-1874 in Randolph County, Illinois d. 10-26-1955 in Los Angeles Mother: Mary Roche Father: John Cullen Katherine's husband: Platt C. Vallejo b. 1860 d. 6-17-1933 in Los Angeles state file# 42707 Platt Vallejo is the greatest mystery to me. I'm so anxious to find his place of birth and his parents names. Also his occupation. Anything at all would be wonderful. Thanks so much for your help. This list has rewarded me greatly with generosity and kindness.
