Dear All, I know some of you know and have helped my son, Tim McGarry, in his search for our family. He has been in the hospital for sometime now and I have been trying to answer his mail. For those who write to him, he is progressing and can use all your good vibes, prayers, thoughts, for sure. One piece of mail came with startling news. It solved one of our mysteries about my Mother's grandmother's maiden name, it is Barbara Murphy, born in Newfoundland, Canada, lived in Boston, MA, then New Jersey, but left another mystery in his place. So I am asking for your help. I'm trying to locate a WICKS that died recently, most likely New Jersey. I know that's a lot to ask but I never searched recent deaths and don't know how. The letter states that my mother, Florence Johnston, has been named in a Will. They also state they located a Kim Garza, related to my Great Aunt Irene Wicks Manning. Of course this firm is a research company that takes a third,so they won't reveal who died, but for those who have obituary access, maybe you'd be so kind as to help a bit. Here's the family names that should appear. Barbara Murphy, Redmond, Wicks, Schinestuhl, Manning, McGarry in Oranges, New Jersey. Thanks for any help you can give and especially keeping my son's health in your thoughts. Sheila Smith --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
