Hi All,
I am needing an obituary of John Oscar CARMACK who is reported as committing suicide
around Christmas in 1939. I haven't seen where he used his middle name
"Oscar" on any papers. So it may not be on an obituary. His wife's name was
Mary Magdalene SLANKARD but was known and used the name "Maggie" in census
records. They had 5 children that I have found, Lee, Jessee, Elzetta, Juanita, and Victor.
I'm thinking Victor may have died between the 1930 census and when John died. So there
could be an obituary for him also. I know this is a major request, but would someone be so
kind and look for these obituaries. Victor A. CARMACK was born about Sept 1926. I've
found info on the other four children to prove they lived to adulthood, but nothing on
Victor.
Obituaries I would like are:
John (Oscar) CARMACK died abt Christmas 1939, suicide
Maggie SLANKARD Carmack died on 11 Dec 1947
Victor A. CARMACK (if died early) between:
12 Apr 1930 to Christmas 1939
I would be very grateful if someone would please look for these obituaries and email me
copies to: loiscarmack(a)cablerocket.com
Best Regards,
Lois LAYTON Carmack in MO
