    Notes 
    • Proposed Change: Frederick Homer Halladay (I10827)

      Homer was the sole provider for his wife and four children (Nancy, Karen, Rebecca and Frederick Homer Jr.). Postponing his own personal goals to provide for his family in a time of ecomonic uncertainty (the great depression). Homer worked as butcher, a gunsmith, and in as a Steel worker in Ohio. His skills were inumerable and his commitment to family immeasurable. Homer too was a talented musician who played the trumpet in community bands. I am fortunate to possess this most prized heirloom.

      I am Krishna Darshan Patangay son of Rebecca Halladay and Surya Prakash Patangay. During a genogram research project attending San Diego State University I had utilized these records of our family history and have suggested some additional info about my Gran Dad Homer.

      Thanks for all you work everyone!
      Cheers

      Hello Russ,
      Thanks for the relationship charts you sent. I have enjoyed reviewing them.
      In reviewing the information I sent you I see that I made a typo error in the date of my father's death. Frederick Homer Halladay [10827] died in 1992. It was not 1993 as I stated previously. The other information is correct. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
      On another note, while going through some things this week I ran across a wedding invitation to the marriage of my paternal grandparents. The listings for Fred Tyler Halladay [7092] and Lena K. Zorn [7093] need some corrections/additions. First Fred was actually Frederick. The spelling of Lena should be "Lina" from the invitation. Her middle name was Katharine. The wedding was "Thursday, June fourth, nineteen hundred three at high noon". If I get my husband to scan the invitation would you like a copy of it for you database? Lina was born in 1877 and died in 1952.
      ...
      Regards,
      Nancy Patterson
