Asturian-American Migration Forum

In one hour of finding this site I have already connected with a cousin mrdrod/ Richard on the Rodriguez side.

Does Any one remember Arthur Garcia who maried Ann Rodriguez. They lived in Donora, PA

I was told that my grandparents Ann & Arthur died in the early 60's of Black Lung. I never met them.

Ann's info:
Parents Lazaro and Mary rodriguez
her siblings:
Raymond, Sara, Julia, Angel(Helo)

Arthur's Military records show that he was born in Missouri. That's all I know.

I need birth and death date (approximate) if anyone knows.

I have no information on his parent's either. Anyone?

If anyone remembers him from work, school, or neighborhood please post. Will take any information you have.

Thanks- Brian

Brian to the best of my knowledge Arthur died in 1959 . ann either died shortly after or before. but i know that art was young and sally and anita were already older. i got this from my aunt and she couldn't remember the rest. it is amazing though to think of the kind of people that your mom, anita, and art turned out to be after being orphaned. it is also amazing to know how Lazaro and the family pulled together for the well being of the kids. makes ya wonder how you'd be if it were you ya know. i love this family of ours, always have always will. well good luck and keep me posted. i was excited to see richard here, i haven't seen him in years but i hope to get down that way soon. i have no excuse, they only live an hour from me. but i hope that maybe we can get to the bottom of this family history thing, and get a nice tree together for our kids. c-ya
