Hello and thank you for doing so much work adding memorials!

I wanted to let you know that you have linked Aunt Fay Oakey Miller (the youngest sister of my grandfather Wilfred E Oakey who is buried in the Union Cemetery, Peckville, PA) to the wrong parents. She is buried in Forest Hill Cemetery, Dunmore.

Her parents were James A (1880-1942) and Jane Ann Wear OAKEY (1881-1977).
I believe they are buried in the Primitive Methodist cemetery in Dickson City (my dad took me a few years ago and I have a photo of their headstone), but I don't see a memorial for them.

I am happy to send you a copy of Aunt Fay and Uncle Harold's Lackawanna County Marriage License if you would like.
Their daughter Jane Ann (Find A Grave Memorial 158191440) is also buried in Forest Hill Cemetery in Dunmore. I can also send you a copy of Jane Ann's Pennsylvania Death Certificate if you like.

Please let me know if you need the documents from me.
My email is gorowe-at-gmail.com
