February 7, 2013 - George Gilbert Daugherty

George Gilbert Daugherty was my uncle.  Strange I never know whether to write "was" or "is".  Our relationships remain the same after death.  Anyway, George was/is the brother of my mom.  He passed away in 1982.  George was the grandson of the previous newsclippings of George Henry Daugherty and the son of Fred I. Daugherty and Irene Carrington Daugherty.  The wife mentioned is Helen June Ferber Daugherty, who eventually secured her high degree...A doctorate in Sociology.

Continuing with my gems of newsarticles, this one is from January 1954.

"George G. Daugherty, who attended the first five grades in Wessington, high school in Bonilla, and is now a junior at the University of Colorado, has been awarded an educational grant from the Rosenfield Fund in the amount of $58.00 to apply on the Spring Semester tuition.

Daugherty is majoring in Clinical Psychology at the University of Colorado and plans to go on for his Master's and Ph.D. degrees after his graduation next year.

The award is made on the basis of his satisfactory record in his subjects, his efforts to help himself through school, and his need of financial assistance.  Daugherty is not a veteran, receives no aid from his or his wife's parents, and have a four-yearo-old daughter - reasons enough for the need of financial assistance.  Mrs. Daugherty works as a secretary-bookkeeper for a small manufacturing company at Boulder, Colo."
