I have a Thomas J. MIRANDA in my BOTKIN line. Wondering if you know how he fits into the MIRANDA line -- his obituary yields no clues. Thomas J. MIRANDA was born Abt. June 1847 in Ohio, and died January 6, 1930. He married (1) M. Lucinda MOCK January 02, 1870 in Clark County, Ohio, daughter of Samuel MOCK and Mary Ann BOTKIN. She was born Abt. January 1851 in Ohio, and died July 3, 1927. He married (2) Mary UNKNOWN in December 1929 "just a few days before becoming ill" (1/7/1930 Springfield obituary says he was ill for 3 weeks before succumbing to pneumonia). He was Justice of the Peace of New Carlisle (in Clark County, OH) for 25 years.
