Record notes

  • Created after user acceptance of source-bradner-advocate-obituary-for-mrs-marie-shroyer-naming-orpha-armstrong-1941 on 26 April 2026.
  • The accepted 1941 Bradner Advocate obituary for Mrs. Marie Shroyer records surviving foster daughter Mrs. Orpha Armstrong of South Maple Street, with whom Marie Shroyer was living at the time of death.
  • The accepted obituary records Orpha by married name only; the Hill surname is retained from the promoted lead and the proposed 1906 marriage-license notice for Thomas Armstrong and Orpha Hill.
  • Proposed Wood County birth-register sources for Paul Edward Armstrong record his mother as Effie Hill, with Epha or Alpha also possible; do not treat Effie/Epha/Alpha as fully resolved to Orpha until the remaining marriage, census, death, or cemetery evidence is accepted.
  • Potential spouse and child links to Thomas Herman Armstrong and Paul Edward Armstrong remain source-supported but not added as canonical relationships in this pass because the direct Thomas/Paul relationship sources are still proposed.
