Frank CHOCHON 1882 - 18 May 1955 |
| According to the list of burials in the St. Michael's 125th Anniversary publication, Frank was a son of John and Catherine CIOCHON. I found a baptism record for a Franciscus CZOCHON on 18 September 1880, born to John and Catharina nee GEMBOLA. I am speculating that this is the same Frank, even though the date on the tombstone does not match. | |

the only entry that comes close to the information on this marker. |
