Please raise a glass to my 90 year old Great Aunt Gertrude Madonna McGuire |
|
who passed away this week. She was the second youngest and last surviving child of my Great grandparents Thomas McGuire and Margaret McManus who were married in 1897 in Clinton county, Iowa. The oldest of Gert's nine siblings was born in 1898 and the youngest in 1918. Gert herself was born in 1917 and was the terminus of a family span of 111 years. God be with you Gert and God be with the McGuires and McManuses.
