I am searching for my father Joe Buster Chandler b, 09/09/1899 Spokane,
Washington.
When he came to California abt. 1926, he came with two other friends;
1. Bernard Gilbreath b. 1904 Ark. son of George F. Gilbreath.
Bernard was best man at my fathers wedding in 1930 at San Diego.
Bernard was a postal clerk in San Diego in 1937.
He married Hazel Stockburgh in 1934.
They had a daughter Mary Bernarda Gilbreath.
I would like to find out if this Bernard was ever in the state of Washington
and if so what local and time period. I have never found my father listed in
Spokane where he stated he was born and I thought if I could find his friends
maybe I could find Joe Chandler.
2. The other person Joe mentioned was a Mr. Bushard (sp) who lived in La Mesa
or El Cajon, California. I remember reading an article in the San Diego
Tribune in the late 1940s about Mr. Bushard committing suicide by exhaust
fumes in a garage.
I would also like to find out if this Mr. Bushard was ever in the state of
Washington and if so what local and time period.
