    1. [PABLAIR-L] Marriage records f/Grace HonorCalhoun and 2 husbands
    2. R Pierson
    3. Grace Honor Calhoun of Allport PA was supposedly wed 3 times. She was placed in the Soldiers Orphan School system in 1898 after the death of her mother in Nov. 1897. The first husband is unknown and there may have been a child born to this union who died in a fire. My mom's birth certificate indicates Grace had a child prior to Mom's birth in 1918 who was born alive but was now deceased, and Mother seemed to remember hearing about the girl and the fire. Grace's second husband was David Clapper Frederick of Altoona, they were wed prior to 1918 when their daughter Mildred (my Mom) was born. The only marriage I have proof of is her third to Howard Cloyd Gibson on December 11, 1933. They were wed by the clerk of the Orphan Court in Philadelphia Co, PA certificate # 630832, 2 1/2 months after the death of DC Frederick, who had disappeared in 1922 after the birth of his and Grace's son Richard. Is there anyone out there who can tell me where to go to find this info, or how ! to contact the clerk of the Orphan's Court for a check of their records. Michele Gibson-Pierson
