I am looking for this couple . . . this is what I know, or think I know, about them!!

1) both from ireland, not sure when emigrated or parent's names

2) married and lived in MA, Julia Dunn was born in 1920, and I know that she has a younger brother Frank.

3) She was very young when father was out of picture, kids were placed in children's home for a period of time,not sure if parents divorced but seems there are many stories depending on who you talk to, incoluding one that he was a wrestler and got killed in the ring; another about dying in a huge fire.

4) Anna married a Moser soon after, they lived in MN and in CA.

5) Julia married Clarence Reckinger in MN, that is where they lived,died and are buried.

I would appreciate any help that is offered in learning more about what happened to Edward . . . THANX!!
