Marcella Nettie Korchinski nee Ron (1935 - 2009)

Even though Marcy didn't really have an attic, the posthumous discovery of numerous boxes containing uncatalogued photographs (many of them hidden under beds) suggest that she might have stored these archival treasures in a dusty attic for sorting out "one day." That day has arrived!

Much of the material is mysterious to me, and all of it needs to be organized. Family comments are not only welcome, they are vital to this project. I thank you for your input in advance!

To assist you (and me), I have also started a family tree. It is far from complete, but this link will take you to my page at Family Echo: FAMILY TREE (Just email me if you need the password, I didn't want to publish it here.)

Due to the nature of blogging (and sorting through archives), there is no apparent order to these entries. If you prefer to search through the photos and documents in a logical way, please refer to the search options on the right.


1962 - Wedding Flowers

Here is a planning and price sheet for Marcy and Stan's wedding flowers (for their wedding on November 10), followed by the receipt of October 24, 19[6]2 for a total of $74.65. The other receipt is dated December 1, 19[6]2 for $16.23; I don't know if that was a balance or further expense, as it is hard to decipher (does that say "Acct Nov 10?").

The address shown here is the same as on other receipts for Marcy at the time, so I presume it is hers. Did she live at this address alone before the wedding (note that both names are on the receipt dated after their vows)? Was it an apartment or a house?


This envelope from the florist shows no postal code and a stamp cost of just four cents (and look how youthful the Queen looks)! The postal stamp dates this to December 3, 1962, so I stuck it here with the receipts (it is the right size but was empty in the box):
