Julia Bacon Plimpton died

03/13/1945 |

Category:

Julia Bacon Plimpton died at home, at 847 Asylum Avenue.

Trust but verify

The obituary identified Julia’s sister Mary as “Mrs. Mary Plimpton.”  To the best of my research, Mary never married.

The present illuminated

The obituary noted that the funeral would be private, and it did not give a date for it.

The future foretold

Mary Plimpton and Grace Plimpton will sell 847 Asylum Avenue to Irving Levy on October 8, 1946.
