I am looking for the sister (who married Thomas Gannon, Jr.before 1959) of My Birthmother who is the Late Evelyn B. Upton b. Sept.1933 in NY, died March 1959 at age 25-26 at St. Michael's Hosp. Newark, NJ. She died three days after brain surgery. Evelyn was married(at 17) but separated from her then husband, Joseph Zahradnik (age 27)of Elizabeth, NJ and living with her parents(Joseph and Mary Upton) at the time of her death in 1959. Evelyn worked for the phone company and then an oil company and was seeking an annulment to her marriage. I am looking for Evelyn's older sister,who was only known as Mrs. Thomas Gannon, Jr. in the obits at the time of Evelyn's death in March 1959 and any nieces or nephews of Evelyn's. My birthmother was survived by her parents, Joseph J. and Mary Upton and they lived on Hanford St. in Newark,NJ at the time of Evelyn's death in 1959. She was survived by her sister also. I was born in March 1955 surrendered to Catholic Charities in Newark and permanently placed with adoptive parents December 1955. My birth name was Madeline Jean Zahradnik. Evelyn was burried in Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Linden, NJ I am not sure of the spelling, but I visited her grave in the 90s. She is buried alone. Her father, Joseph J. Upton paid for her plot. If anyone can help me find her sister or her sister's children who were born Gannons, please let me know. All of this was in the area of Elizabeth and Newark, NJ 1951 to 1959. Evelyn didn't finish highschool, she married too young to a man who was 10 her senior. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
