Grandma Ginny (1905 - 1994) was the second wife of Clinton Newman. She lived in Pittsburg and had a friendship and relation by marriage, but not a blood relation, with her step-daughter-in-law Ruth Newman.
Early life
Virginia was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania to Edward H. Worstell from Ohio and Mae D. Worstell from Pennsylvania.
The Pittsburgh Press, 3 February 1924, page 39 [1], noted that on Friday 1 February 1924 she graduated "with honor" from Allegheny High School.
Marrying into the Newman family
At age 44, she married Clinton Newman in Pinellas, Floria, on 15 July 1949. At the time her occupation was listed on her marriage license as a teacher. This was her first marriage.
He died in 1972.
Death
She died in 1994. She is buried with her husband in Mount Royal Cemetery, Glenshaw, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, USA, Northland Section 22. The grave appears to have a typo, giving her middle initial as "W" instead of the "E" that she signed on her marriage license.
