Leslie Ephraim Sr. GARLINGTON & Ethel"Billie" L GRUNDY
Father: Leslie Ephraim Sr. GARLINGTON, (son of Eugene A GARLINGTON), b. 12 May 1914, District of Columbia, d. 12 Aug 1994
Note that on the 1920 Census this man goes by Lester Garlington. According to his granddaughter he was in the Navy and met his wife Verna Ohrmundt there, while serving in the Washington DC area. After his divorce he remarried a woman named Ethel “Billie” Grundy. I have only added the one child from the obituary as it is hard to tell if the others are from Ethel's first marriage or her marriage to Leslie. Obviously she has been married before because one of the sons has a different last name. Ethel's obit under her notes mentions her stepson Leslie E Garlington Jr and that he predeceased her. Actually he did not predecease her, he died in 2004.
Mother: Ethel“Billie” L GRUNDY, b. 23 Jan 1923, Perth Austrailia, d. 25 Jul 2000, Frederick Maryland
