I just looked up the Johnstown Obituary Index: (code: Johnstown Tribune=JT; Johnstown Tribune-Democrat = TD) It has Bessie Torr in the Johnstown Tribune-Democrat on 1953 June 11 paper. It doesn't list a Joseph Torr, sorry. Marcellus J Blough: 1942/May/30 & June/2 JT; Catherine Blough: 1897/Nov 4&5 JT; 1901/Aug/23 JT; 1907/Jan/12 JT; 1910/Feb/3 JT; 1922/Dec/29&30 JT; 1923/July/25 JT; 1981/Mar/3 T-D; Catherine J. 1925/Oct/12 JT; Catherine L 1918/Aug/6 JT; Catherine P 1977/Dec/11, T-D; Catherine S. 1983/Jan/22 T-D. Katherine Blough: 1896/Dec/28 JT; 1928/May/19 JT; 1947/Jun/17 JT; Katie 1947/Jan/16 T-D; Katie A 1954/Feb/6 JT If you know if Catherine "Kate" died before Marcellus or after it will cross off a lot lookups for her. I hope these help.
