    • EDWARD JAMES GRIFFITH 1925-2000

      According to anita@ads-stl.com he had three children by his first wife whilst living in St. Louis. After the divorce he disappeared and his ex-wife married again. Her new husband brought up the three children.
      Anita wrote to say that her mother was very upset that Ed had died and wanted to know whether I had any photographs. By the time I attempted to send them she had changed her e-mail address. From the correspondence I gained the impression that her mother still loved her former husband. Very sad.
      (Michael James EDGOOSE, 2005)

      Edward James GRIFFITH junior married Harriett [sic] DUFFY (formerly GORSKI, formerly LARVIK, nee EDGOOSE) on 27 February 1960.
