Search Continues For Widow Of Dead Man
The sixtieth woman claims to be the widow of Andrew Smith alias Andrew Jackson who died December 10 in Detroit. Edgar Herzog of the Elyria American Legion says many claimants arise from $1,200 in adjusted compensation. He notes all claimants are white, while the deceased was colored, and the real widow remains unfound as two Estella Smiths in Elyria report living husbands. The search follows a prior report that a widow was being sought.
