Misc. Notes
Resident of Bainbridge, Conoy Township at the time of her death leaving seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Barbara had been a resident of Lancaster County, PA for forty years.

Barbara had worked in the office of the games department at Hershey Park and at the former Grants Department Store, Middletown.
____________

Barbara’s middle initial was found at this source.57
____________

Barbara McGaughey was in ninth grade in Nov of 1950 and an Honor Roll Student.58
____________

In February 1956 the widowed Barbara was living in a two-dwelling house with her infant daughter 14-month old Maxine and her parents the McGaughey’s Also in the home were the family of Robert D. and Joyce (Hull) Wise. The home, that overlooked the Dimeling Bridge* in Clearfield County, PA tragically, and without warning, caught fire killing the Wise’s two-year old daughter Patrica Jean. Barbara wore a size 14 dress.59

It’s probable that the McGaugheys and the Hulls, mentioned above, were related, but I’m not sure how. In addition Barbara’s father Andrew was killed in an auto accident in a car driven by a Jack Wise. I believe I once heard that Barbara McGaughey and Joyce and sister Joanne Hull were cousins, but I am unable to find any connection between the families.3
