The Lake Odessa Wave & Times, Thursday, August 31, 1944

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Daniels, who live seven miles east of town in the Bishop 
district, received official announcement Wednesday morning that their son S2/c 
Burton Daniels had been drowned in action (presumably in the English channel) 
and his body was buried in England.  The last letter which the parents 
received from their son about three weeks ago stated that he was in England 
and expected to get home in September.

Burton, who was 18 last May, was married early in June to Miss Margaret 
Rathburn of Sunfield while he was home on service sick leave, following six 
weeks hospitalization after being wounded earlier in the Italian area.

He had lived all his life in the Bishop district, and attended Sunfield high 
school.  He is survived by his widow who is employed in Detroit, his parents, 
and five brothers, Veryl in California, Pvt. Virgil at Camp Swift, Tex., and 
Charles, Jr., Gerald, and Duane at home.
