Obituary; David F. Usher - 1927-1993

Posted: 8 Jun 2008 9:29AM GMT
Classification: Obituary
Surnames: Usher, Sharkey
I found the following obituary clipping in some of my Usher papers. Neither the name of the newspaper, nor the location had been noted, but I believe it may have been Maine, since Wiscasset is mentioned. As far as I know this David Usher is not closely connected with my Ushers, but maybe someone can use the information.
Genie Usher
