My husband always thought his mother was married before-
finally found the marriage application
I couldn’t track Paul E Herter from that date. Did he die! Were they divorced!
And my husband doesn’t know his mom and dads wedding date
Mary Czaplicka born Feb 1918 Philadelphia,died Sept 8 1967 NJ
Thomas Witts born Oct 16 1919 PA,died Nov 11,2001 NJ

I’m also looking for the death date of his Grandmother
Fannie Quinn
b:1893 PA. parents Thomas J Adams/Jane Stevenson
m: !!!!! Martin Witts/Witz 1890-1923
m: Harry Quinn 1877-1951

I have many other queries with the Czaplicka line. But at the moment I hope to solve the above 2
Thank you

Antun/Anthony H b: 1881 d: 1947
George Peter b: 1883
Mamie b: 1885 d: 1893
Margaret b: 1888

Would love to find when Peter arrived in the USA
When the wife Mary died

I have been able to trace the family of Anthony
I just discovered that George changed his name from Domincovich to Diston prior to the 1940 C
Couldn’t find his death or that of his wife Mary Lamb. He may have remarried in 1949 SATTLER.
I couldn’t trace Margaret. I found a Margaret Domincovich in a 1940 C working at Philadelphia Hospital

I hope someone can fill in some gaps.
