Below are articles that we have researched but are still missing critical information on. You may find details of our research thus far on the relevant article’s Discussion page. (Or not.)

If you have confirmation of the missing info, please add it or email. If you aren’t sure of your source, add what you think you know to the article’s Discussion page and sign it with four tildes. ~~~~

Plenty of other people, events and organizations are missing information, too. Try searching “????”


Whatever Happened to ...?[edit]

Probably Dead[edit]

We cannot confirm death dates for:

  • Richard Bergeron - no info in major Puerto Rico papers (& his name is so common that using newspapers.com for American papers isn't very helpful).
  • Precise date of Les Cole’s death?
  • Precise date of Jean Cox’s death?
  • Eunice Guyy — Did she exist? No evidence in Ancestry.com or newspapers.com, several named Eunice Guy, even one in Illinois born long before 1925.
  • Reta GrossmanJohn Grossman had a younger sister named Ruth Joanne Grossman. Maybe "Reta" was a fan name or a cousin? newspapers.com had several Reta Grossmans.
  • Barbi Johnson — not sure of correct birthdate, either.
  • Joseph Howard Krucher - Likely dead; no info in ancestry.com or newspapers.com after the 1940s.
  • Earl Perry — alive in Dallas in 1961, but not by his son's wedding in 1971.
  • Mari Wolf — Last published work we can find from her in 1961, Forry Ackerman was searching for her in 1976.
  • Honey Wood — after 1968 - Honey was at Baycon 1968, also looked under "Louise Wood" but can't find whether she's dead or alive as of 2021 (possible but unlikely).
  • Allen Zweig — we have no information about him at all, really. No info matches claims he was a real person.

Birthdate?[edit]

  • Joy Goodwin – have birth year only, also missing birth name and first married name. Goodwin was her second husband.
