Daniel A. Carleton

Daniel Augustus Carleton Jr. enlisted in the Army Air Corps January 20, 1943 and served until December 25, 1945. He apparently never married. He was born the youngest of six children on November 17, 1922 to Daniel Carleton Sr. and Hazel B. Davis. His parents were both born in Maine; in 1930 they lived in Guilford on Elm Street. Daniel died August 5, 2008, presumably of cancer. He was born in Cambridge, MA and died there, having moved back there sometime after the war. He worked for Quincy Oil Company in Massachusetts for 25 years, according to his obituary. He is buried in the Sangerville Village Cemetery, with his parents and brother Charles and his wife, Irene Dulac, who happened to be my cousin. He was quite handsome, I think, and apparently very accomplished, judging by his high school activities alone.
