Seavers in the News -- 1985 Death Notice of Audrey Seaver of Norwood, Massachusetts

 Here is this week's edition of "Seavers in the News" - a weekly feature from the historical newspapers about persons with the surname Seaver that are interesting, useful, mysterious, fun, macabre, or add information to my family tree database.

This week's entry is from the The Boston [Mass.] Globe newspaper dated Tuesday, 16 April 1985, Page 79, Column 1:


The transcription of the article is:

"SEAVER -- In Norwood, April 14, Audrey (Channell), wife of the late Clifford A. Seaver, mother of Fred E. Thretheway of N.H., David W. of Franklin and Raymond K. of Canton.

Audrey June Channell (1916-1985) was born 14 March 1916 in Boston, Massachusetts, the daughter of Ernest James and Geneva Clara (Bierfeldt) Channell.   She married (1) Frederick Harding Tretheway (1913-1985) in about 1942, and they had one son, Frederick E. Thretheway.  She married (2) Clifford Aldrich Seaver (1912-1959) after 1955. Clifford Aldrich Seaver had a first wife, Carolyn E. Gill (1912-1955), and had two sons, David W. Seaver and Raymond K. Seaver by her.

I am not a confirmed Seaver cousin of Clifford Aldrich Seaver because his earliest known Seaver ancestor is Joseph T. Seaver (1805-????) of Taunton, Mass. who married Betsy T. Davis (1810-1868) in 1830 in Taunton.

You never know when a descendant or relative will find this blog post and learn something about their ancestors or relatives, or will provide more information about them to me.
