Ted Dunham's widow is Helen Keyser Dunham, still of Portsmouth. Ted's daugther, Roseanne Dunham Evans sent me this e-mail with attached copies of letters to Ted in 1946 which awarded him the Bronze Star and an Oakleaf Cluster for valor in rescuing people from the fields of battle in Germany and France. Ted is half-brother to the Kegley clan of Forest and Mary Kegley, who spent most of their lives at 1227 McConnell Ave. in Portsmouth, Ohio.
Today is the first I have learned of Ted's award, and it is sixty-two years later.
Thank you roseanne and Helen!
