I have a few updates.
1. Mary Burger ARMEL remarried at some point after 1946. Her second husband is WIlliam John YOUNG. Mary died in 1992 and William died in 2004. Obits for William and Mary mention two daughters: Laura Lee ARMEL and a second daughter Claudia married to Greg WILSON. The extended family lived in the Harrisburg and Middletown area in Dauphin County, PA.

There is still no trace of Loring ARMEL in the Social Security Death Index, Findagrave and other common resources.
