Harold Fitzgerald Family


Harold Fitzgerald sitting center with his wife Irene seated next to him, their children and grandchildren. Harold was born in Iola, IL July 5, 1924, the son of Lawrence & Vida (Land) Fitzgerald.  He married Irene Ganster Nov. 29, 1942 and they had seven children:  Barbara, Judith, Harold Jr., Denise, Mark, Kevin and Randall.  Harold was an avid genealogist and lived in Las Vegas.  A lot of his research is available at the Clay County Historical Society in Louisville, IL.  Mom started a correspondence with Harold and Irene.  They were quite generous in helping her track down more of her family and sharing research.  Harold died in Las Vegas, NV Oct. 24, 1994 and is buried in Palm Valley View Memorial Park there.
