Victor Zuzack was my wife's Uncle. My wife's mother was Mollie Caroline Zuzack / Zuzak

Mollie married Edward Karkutt in Wayne, Michigan in 1925 and Victor was in the wedding party. I have a photo of the wedding party if you would like a jpeg let me know.

Thanks for the come back.

I have one more question, if you do not mind. What was Cecilia & Bernice's maiden names?

Galbraith or Wisiolowski
