John McGraw

LILLY — John McGraw, 83, died yesterday morning at his home at 350 Portage Street.  He was 
born in Newry, but had been a resident of Lilly for the past 60 years.  His wife, Mrs. Jennie 
(George) McGraw is dead.  Surviving are these children:  John H. McGraw, Aliquippa; Leo F. 
McGraw, Terra Alta, W.Va., and Mrs. G. L. Baker, Juniata.  Twenty-one grandchildren also 
survive.

Funeral services will be conducted at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning in St. Brigid's Catholic 
Church. Interment will be in the church cemetery under the direction of A. F. Tickerhoof, Lilly 
mortician.

**NOTE:  Mr. John McGraw and his wife, Jennie (George) McGraw were the foster parents of 
John, Leo and Mrs. G. L. Baker.  The surnames is this obituary should read John H. Harmon, 
Aliquippa, Leo F. Harmon, Terra Alta, W. Va., and Mrs. G. L. Baker (Catherine Harmon), 
Juniata.   The McGraws did not adopt these children, so there is an error in this obituary.
