Victor F Thorp

Vickie's Dad was Victor Fay Thorp b. 3-8-1918  d. 9-4-2006

    Another Uncle was Darrell L. Thorp  b.  2-17-1922 d.12-17-2001     Carmon Carlton Thorp b. 10-19-1924 d. 7-9-1944   All were born in Bridgewater,Ohio   Not sure what ACC is I think they were all in the Army-Airforce back then. That is what my Dad always said. John Seidel is my step Uncle. I'm just getting information from him. Let me call him and see what he says about you calling him. He is so lonely since my Aunt died and tries to keep busy. I know he was a Marine but was on a navy ship. I will email and let you know what he says.   My Dad and Darrell did not talk much about Carmon. It was very hard on them. A week before he died Darrell sat under a tree with him. They promised if one died they would they bring the body back. It took a year but he is buried in Ohio. I found out more about him since I've been working on our family history. Written by his Daughter, Vickie.  (Baarbi E Connolly, Researcher.)
