Wayne Edison Philips
I have an old studio photograph of Wayne E. PHILIPS which was taken at the Miller Studio in Greenville, PA when Wayne was just 4 months and 12 days old. The photograph appears to have been taken in the early 1900's. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Wayne and his family:

Wayne Edison PHILIPS or PHILLIPS was b. 15 May 1905 in Sheakleyville, PA to parents Taylor Leroy PHILLIPS (1875-1965) and Laura “Lora” Idell MCCORKLE (1877-1943) who were married 21 Nov 1896 in Mercer Co., PA. Wayne had two sisters, Julia Arlene PHILIPS (1897-1982) and Gertrude M. PHILIPS (b. 1900).

Wayne married Mildred Helen DUKES (1906-1984) on 20 Nov 1929 or 1930 in Kittanning, PA and they had three children including Marcia A.; Ronald Wayne; and Patricia J. PHILLIPS, all born between 1933 and 1938. Wayne died 4 May 2000 in Germantown or Memphis, TN and is buried in the Forest Lawn Memorial Gardens North Cemetery in Pompano Beach, FL.

I am hoping to get the photograph back to family and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.

Thanks,
Shelley
