Klouthis, formerly Mary “Tite” Gallagher; and Hugh Earl Boyle, a Beaver Island-born Great Lakes sailor who died in Charlevoix.

Evidence and limits

This grouped record preserves obituary and family notices. It does not replace civil, funeral, cemetery, or church records and does not provide complete biographies for every person named.

Sources

Klouthis, formerly Mary “Tite” Gallagher, who died April 6; and Hugh Earl Boyle’s April 9 death in Charlevoix.
