Narrative

From History of Cambria County Pennsylvania, by Henry Wilson Storey,Volume III (New York, Chicago: The Lewis Publishing Company, 1907).
Sons of T.H. Dick
4. James, born at Ebensburg, August 6, 1874, graduated in the Ebensburg schools; married Blanche, daughter of J. F. McKenrick, Esq.; is now a clerk in the offices of the Maryland Steel Company, at Baltimore, Maryland.

 

In 1930 this family was in Roanoke, Virginia, but sometime before 1938 they moved to Milwaukee. Working backward from the obituary of James' son Thomas, we find that Thomas himself was buried in Wisconsin. Thomas and his two sisters received their SS number in Wisconsin. So the Blanche M Dick who died in the Milwaukee area in 1963 must be the mother of the family also.
