Research Notes

The death certificate tells a very sad story of an 82 year old man walking on the rail road tracks at 7 am and being struck by a train. It says he's divorced and his wife was Margarite. It recounts that his birth date is Sept 10th 1855 (which doesn't match his marriage certificate). The person who was the informant, Mrs. Lemuel Warwick, lived at the same address as Joseph. It could be a daughter. The marriage certificate has the name of a mother and a father for Joseph, but the death certificate says unknown.
