Monica Brigid Gray b. 26 Sep 1930, Barroe North, County Sligo, Ireland  d. 2 Nov 2018, Washburn, Bayfield County, Wisconsin, USA (Age 88 years) |
Married |
30 May 1957 [7, 8] |
Research Notes |
Monica’s obituary gives her marriage date as 30 May 1955, but she didn’t arrive in the US until later that year. Find-A-Grave entry lists only year (1957), so I have assumed the day is correct in the obituary and the year is correct in the Find-A-Grave entry. [7, 8] |
