RESEARCH NOTES FOR DESCENDANTS OF FRED PUGH McCOLLOR Fred Pugh was a farmer by trade Fred's son, Earl Martin registered for the draft in September of 1918. On his enlistment record (see document below) he is described as having a tall build, with blue eyes and brown hair.  He lists himself as a self-employed farmer and names his father as his nearest relative. Another record exists concerning the birth of Roy Alton.  It claims he was born not on the 4th but on the 5th and at Cornville, ME, not Chrisfield. Frederick John, son of Alton served in the Air Force from 1959 to 1963. He worked for the State of Maine for 28 years and was an avid amateur radio enthusiast. He loved to ride motorcycles. He was a survivor of cancer.  He died at age 70 of complications of a stroke. FRED PUGH'S BIRTH RECORD FRED PUGH'S DEATH RECORD	THE MYSTERY OF LITTLE INEZ Inez was the child of cousins Mary Jane "Mame" McCollor and Fred Pugh McCollor.  She died at just 9 years old "of consumption" (one name for TB which was so common back then.)  The mystery began when we noted that Inez was born a full ten years before Fred's marriage to Ethel. Thanks to cousin Doris Mahoney, who was particularly curious about the little girl, we have been able to confirm her parentage. It is not known if there was a marriage between Mary Jane and Fred or not.  Inez is buried with Edward and Margaret McCollor in Evergreen Cemetery where her name is spelled Ines.  Doris and I have felt Inez had fallen between the cracks in the family history, but deserves her rightful place as the first child of Fred Pugh.  Click graphic to view family grave markers
