It's time for another edition of "Carringers in the News" - a weekly feature from the historical newspapers about persons with the surname Carringer (my mother's maiden surname) that are interesting, useful, mysterious, fun, macabre, or add information to my family tree database.
This week's entry is from the San Diego [Calif.] Union newspaper dated 11 November 1976:
The transcription of the article is:
"Lyle L. Carringer
"Services will be held t 1:30 p.m. today at Cypress View Mortuary for Lyle L. Carringer, 85, of 825 Harbor View Place, a lifelong county resident who died Friday in a hospital. Inurnment will be in the mortuary mausoleum.
"Mr. Carringer, a native San Diegan who attended Sherman Elementary School and was graduated from the old Russ High School, was an accountant at the old Marston Department Store for 46 years before retiring in 1960. He served in the Marine corps during World War I and was a member of the Marston Oldtimers and the East End Gang.
