The 1930 Chicago Census with Peter, Veronica, Thomas, William, & Marilyn Karr
The 1930 Census reads Kass not Karr. Peter and Rose (no one ever called her Rose; they called her Veronica) had 3 children: Thomas Michael, William Joseph, and Marilyn Rose.
Thomas was born on 12 Feb 1923 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois. He married Alice Frances Dooley on 2 Apr 1945 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois.
Tom was a lieutenant in the Air Force. Seeing he was an officer in the newly emerging Air Force, he was most likely a pilot. Tom was stationed in the Azores. Together Tom and Fran had 2 sons: Thomas P. and Dennis Francis.
In October 1950, they were on a vacation (at least it appears to be a vacation, but they left Tom and Den in the Azores). The trip took them to London.
On 17 October 1950, the plane (a DC-3) took off for Renfrow, Scotland. Shortly after take off, the plane crashed in a town called Mill Hill outside an British military base. There was only 1 survivor. Tom and Fran were killed in the crash.
