I will be posting extractions of several news articles and obituaries. Most do not have a newspaper name, many are undated. I am not related to many of these families. TWO BROWNSVILLE MOTHERS take a stroll with their young sons past Washing Park. Mrs. Sam A. Merrill, and son Matthew and Mrs. Robert F. Rodriguez, with her son David Michael are among those who plan to join the Old Glory Parade when it leaves Washington Park the morning of July 4th. Both mothers are also active members of the Brownsville Beautification Commission, and Mrs. Merrill is chairman of the Mother's Brigade for the July 4th parade.
