Thanks so much for posting this info about my Dad. I knew he lived in Rye, for a bit, but didn’t know this site existed. I can fill in more blanks, if you like, but here’s a couple things just off the top of my head:
His middle name was Edward, so his middle initial should be E, not R.
He was born in Mansfield, PA (his folks lived in Troy, PA).
Thanks,
