Events in My Family Tree: April 13

Because this year April 13 fell on a Friday, I was curious to see which, if any, of the April 13 events in my family fell on Fridays.  It turns out that Kenneth O'Brien's birthday and the deaths of Almira Githens and Irving Gershwind were on Fridays.  Unlike the brave souls who married on April Foo's Day, apparently no one wanted to risk a Friday the 13th wedding, at least not in April.
