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 Supplies

On October 9, 1962, Marcy bought 200 thank you cards, 500 napkins, and 325 invitations. I can only imagine they were for her upcoming wedding on November 10 - although it does seem a bit late to be sending out invitations so close to the event. Perhaps that is just how it was done then - I was under the impression that 8 - 12 weeks advance notice is now standard.

On October 23, 1962, Marcy paid for 600 paper cups, and a couple of table covers from the Crown Zellerbach Paper Company. I presume they were also for the wedding.
