Research Notes

I have seen mention of a marriage to Florence Evelyn Lang, on this original biography and as a wife on Family Search but I have not seen any conclusive information about Florence other than Judith's middle name is reported as Evelyn. Otherwise the record of his wife Irene Frances Murphy in the 1950 census and obituary of Irene as reported above. Since I couldn't link to the original document to verify, I have retained the original notation on this record here incase it becomes connected later - 1940 June 28, Frederick (21) married Florence Evelyn Lang (19) (born on December 12, 1920 in Weymouth, Massachusetts) in Massachusetts. ^[10]
