DAVID P MACPHERSONDavid Paul Macpherson (note the proper spelling with a small “p” which denotes they were from a clan of lowlanders in Scotland) was my father. He joined the Marines at 17, with a note from his mother. He trained at Camp Pendleton & became a radio man in an amphibious tank. They were deployed on a naval ship to arrive as backup to the troops engaged in the Pacific. They waited for weeks at sea until finally dropping their tanks into the water & onto the shores of Okinawa, where they faced Japanese troops. After losing many Marines, they took the island. A movie recruiter came & pointed out 3 guys to come with him. He chose the tallest guys(my dad was 6’3”) that “looked like Marines” & took them to Hollywood. He spent the rest of his enlisted time “acting” in several newsreels & a few movies. The biggest one was GUADALCANAL DIARY in 1943. After the war, he used the GI Bill to get degrees in Sociology & Political Science from Berkeley & USC. He joined the 49ers, the first trainees for LA County Probation Dept. He stayed with the department until he retired in 1976. He married my mother Sara Valdez 5/7/1955 & they were married 50 years until his death. I was born Marta Elena Macpherson 2/12/1959. His only child. His passion was improving Police/Community relations & was involved in many groups & committees in the field. He became a member of the Police Review Board ordered by the Christopher Commision after the Rodney King Beating. He also produced a quarterly newsletter with a small board of members, called MacTalk. He continued both until 3 months before his death in 2006. 08/10/2024

JOHN R WELCHI'd love as much information as possible of my great-grandfather, John Robert Welch. 5/31/1909-11/15/1996. I believe the death location was San Antonio, TX. I've never seen a photo or an obituary or really not found much more than a WW2 draft card (which was pretty neat). I'd love if anyone else has any info on him or his life. I've just always been interested in learning more about my father's side as I never knew any other Welchs. My dad's father died a month before he was born so we never knew much about that side of the family. Any info is appreciated. :)07/02/2024
