notes: David was born in Franklin Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.
His death certificate also states, Manor, which was an unincorporated place, but
nonetheless in Franklin Township. The township is solid, Manor has yet to be
confirmed by a by a source contemporary to his birth. The death certificate also
states David died in Greensburg Hospital, but it should be Westmoreland Hospital,
which is indeed in Greensburg, but never formally named after the city.
