Dear Lorraine & Michelle, Thank you for trying, but I do have all the family information. I was looking for the pictured news clipping of Charles Anderson's parade funeral. I thought someone may have access to old newspapers on the web. Oh well, again thank you so much. June :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michelle Chagnon" <michellechagnon@yahoo.com> To: <italians-ny@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2010 10:16 PM Subject: Re: [ITALIANS-NY] Looking for a News Clipping I wondered the same thing. This is as far as I got in trying to help out... Muduska was her maiden name...and JH (June) is the person who submitted the record to the website in the first place - so she already knows this much. I'm stuck...kept googling all sorts of combinations. Also tried www.fultonhistory.com - but there were over 5000 possible articles... Anderson, Charles, b. 1865, d. 1927, Sergeant USA Retired, h/o Ottilia Muduska, s/o Henry Anderson and Loretta Wilcox, Grave #8192, Sec. 7, [JH] Anderson, Ottilia, b. c.1857, d. 1941, Grave #8192, Sec. 7, [JH] Saint Michael Cemetery Astoria, Queens County, New York 7202 Astoria Blvd East Elmhurst NY 718-278-3240 ________________________________ From: Lorraine Degelia <lorart@sbcglobal.net> To: italians-ny@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, September 28, 2010 9:00:14 PM Subject: Re: [ITALIANS-NY] Looking for a News Clipping Hello JH: I am assuming your ggm first name was Ottilia. what was her maiden name?
