Another Searing obit has come to my attention. There is more at: http://bit.ly/dXep8U “Robert Searing, 78, of Vestal, passed away on Sunday, January 23, 2011, surrounded by his loving family. He was predeceased by his wife, Ethel (the love of his life); his parents, Albert and Anna Searing; his brothers, Albert and William Searing; and his sister-in-law, Dorothy Searing.” This upstate NY area is where some of my early paternal relatives came from, so this is very interesting. If anyone knows more about the family history, or is interested in this families genealogy, please contact me.
