Virginia Young
CHESTERTON - Virginia Ann Young, 81, of 1101 E. Porter Ave., died Sunday at her home.
Born Aug. 29, 1900 in Michigan she married Elmer Young. He died in 1966.
She was a member of Westville Penecostal Church and a Chesterton area resident most of her life.
Survivors also includes four sons, George of Porter, Edward of New Mexico, Walter of Arizona and James of Illinois; nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
Services 1 p.m. Thursday at Carl Edmonds Funral [sic] Home; the Rev. Tom Ritter officiating; burial Chesterton Cemetery; visitation 2 to 5 and 7 to 9 p.m. Wednesday.

It is unclear whether this marriage actually ever occurred. The entry in the marriage book is crossed out. Virginia says she’s a widow in 1920 and uses the name Dominy when marrying for the 2nd time. The death certificate for Preston states he is single. Unclear if Preston’s family knew anything.
