NY NY - Edna Kaminski, 23, Maspeth, Queens, Aug 1944

[madamx]

I do wonder who knows what. On Ancestry there is a family tree showing John Kaminski marrying Edna A Sarter (b1921) in 1937, with their son Franklin born the following year. This is supported by marriage records and birth records for each. The odd thing is that the tree shows Edna dying in Michigan circa December 1968 - but with no supporting sources. Whether this is good information or someone's speculation is not clear.

Oh wow that is interesting.

It does tie in with the Ancestry trees listing her as dying in Michigan in 1968. However it does not explain the police interest if she was confirmed as dying there in 1968. It seems that Michigan is a common point of interest but what happened and has led to the involvement of Michigan police is unclear.

So does anyone know if Edna died in 1968 in Michigan?. Is the daughter still alive or did she die also. This is so strange.

I came across this Edna Thompson buried at Hart Island died 6-25-1980 at the age of 60 which is what I Believe this Edna's age would of been. She passed away in NYU Hospital for Joint Diseases. Could it have been she walked away from her life and changed her name?

Hart Island is essentially New York City's potter's/pauper's field. The remains of more than one million people are buried on Hart Island, though since the first decade of the 21st century, there are fewer than 1,500 burials a year. Burials on Hart Island include individuals who were not claimed by their families or did not have private funerals; the homeless and the indigent; and mass burials of disease victims.
