Personal Information | Media | All

Name	Laura May NEUENSCHWANDER
	Laura May Neuenschwander Daughter of Celia Malvina Tucker and Christian Neuenschwander Laura May NEUENSCHWANDER (LK4T-FK1) {my aunt} was born on March 16, 1916 at Yakima, Yakima County, Washington (according to the Tucker Family Tree at Ancestry.com). However, findagrave.com at Memorial No. 38897789 indicates that she was born on March 16, 1915 (the year of her birth is indicated as 1915 on her common gravestone with her husband). Laura married Donald Jefferson FISHER on June 2, 1940 at Syracuse, Onondaga County, New York who was born on June 19, 1917 at Ashland, Ashland County, Ohio (see Tucker Family Tree). Laura and Donald have one son Donald. It is likely that Donald at age two years and six months (which verifies the date of birth provided above) is in the household of his parents, Joseph M. and Myrtle M. Fisher at the time of the 1920 federal census for Montgomery Township, Ashland City Ward 3, Ashland County, Ohio (see Sheet 12A enumerated on the 9th and 10th of January 2017). Donald served as a Commander in the United States Navy. There is a record of Donald being on the United States Navy Ship General Alexander M. Path (TAp122) which departed New York, New York on January 21, 1955 (see United States Passenger and Crew Lists for 1914-1966). Laura passed away at the age of 91 years on August 3, 2007 at Seattle, King County, Washington with her remains at the Tahoma National Cemetery (Plot: Section L, Row A, Site 64) at Kent, King County, Washington (see findagrave.com at Memorial No. 38897789).
