Notes for MINNIE
MARIE MARTZ:
Helen (Dickinson)
Quigley remembers celebrating her mother's
birthdays on Feb. 2, Ground Hog Day, but
that her mother's official records were
destroyed in a fire. Tombstone indicates
1870 as date of birth but if she was 73
then 1872 calculated from the Federal
Census of 1880 and Reading Town Reports
seems more likely.
