I'm sorry but I don't have any information other than my grandfather's death
certificate. I wanted to send for his birth certificate, but I have not had the time to
think of it. I have a two year old and a four year old and I'm a full time student in
college. I haven't looked at the certificate again until I got your message. Out of
sight out of mind, you know.
All I know is his name, Herschel Oren Zink and that he died on 12/6/47 at the age of 27
from a kidney disease. My mom never knew her father. She was what you might call a
"war baby", born not too long after the beginnning of WWII.
I think his birth certificate should list his mother and father, hopefully their place of
birth too. I'll save your message and if any names match up I'll let you know.
Thanks for you reply.
