5. Email dated 31 Aug 2016 from Coral Williams about Mary Roberta Sawyer and Adelia Francesca Sawyer:
"I am the great-niece of both those ladies. Their sister Eugenia Dorleski Sawyer was my Grandmother. My father was Joseph Corwin Raymond. Aunt Maynie (Mary Roberta) was killed as she and Aunt Ada (Adelia Francesca) were hit by a truck on the streets of Monterrey Park, Calif. in Sept of 1939. Aunt Ada lost her leg but survived. She visited us in Portland, Oregon in the early 1940s along with her grandson who was in the service, Army I think. My Memory is poor on this. Just wish I had someone to verify this but I am the last one standing."
