Judie My grandfather was married 4 times, Uncle Vic was married only once and died when he was just 33 years old. From the newspaper articles he was hitchhiking, got a ride and 10 minutes later the driver passed another vehicle, lost control and flipped his car. Uncle Vic was the only one hurt and died the next day. He was in Oregon a few weeks and since he died Jul 6, 1939 I figure in left CA about April to June. I have all the female Henry girls born in San Francisco from 1930 to 1939 but I need the mother's maiden name. What is so ironic is I saw a girl born during that time frame with the given name of Patricia Ann Henry. That's same name was given to me when I was born. His daughter was most likely a toddler at the time. I have done all kinds of Internet searches for marriage & death records and no luck. [I've been doing genealogy over 35 years. Two counties my ancestors settled in had courthouse fires and still was able to trance my lined back to the early 1700's and one line back to the 1600's in Scotland, this has really stumped me]. Uncle Vic wrote home that he had married and had a daughter and he came home from work and found his wife dead, most likely it was a heart attack, I honestly don't know. I really appreciate your response. Patti...
The CA birth index entries for the HENRY girls should show their mother's maiden name(s). If you can supply that info perhaps someone can help you find the entry, if you can't find it yourself at Vitalsearch. www.vitalsearch-ca.com (the link Judie mentioned before) MeLani --<snip>..... --I have all the female Henry girls born in San Francisco from --1930 to 1939 but I need the mother's maiden name.
