JOSEPH PETER SCHONARTH JR He was born 18 September 1920 in Boston, Massachusetts the son of Josef Peter Schonarth Sr and Mary Nee. He married first on 12 February 1948 in Needham, Massachusetts to Ora H. Dwelley who was born in Lee, Maine the daughter of Albert Dewelley and Bertha Budge. They had no children and were divorced in 1954. She was murdered on 28 July 1954 at her home 78 Cypress Street, Brookline Massachusetts by a neighborhood boy with her own seamstress scissors. He married second in late 1954 Boston, Massachusetts to Bambina Lena DiPalma born 6 February 1922 in Boston, Massachusetts the daughter of Felice DiPalma and Giovannia "Jennie" Montsanti. When Joseph was 2 years 8 months old, his mother Mary Nee died on 8 May 1923. His father married Alice Effie Malone the daughter of Albert Malone and Mehitable Murchie. Alice was a good Irish lady who loved and raised young Joseph as if he were her very own son. Joseph loved her enough to list her as his mother on many documents he made out over the years. World War II US Army Company I 3rd Battalion 379th Infantry Regiment 100 Infantry Division The story of Platoon Sargent Joseph "Moon" Schonarth and his Infantry can be found in a book written by B.

Buried	Evergreen Cemetery, Brighton, Massachusetts [1]
Notes	Joseph Schonarth was married twice. His first wife was Ora Dwelly. After their divorce, she was murdered. I have many of the newspaper articles on this. Joseph married 2nd Bambi Lena DiPalmo (some of the family spell it with an "o" at the end and other family members spell it with an "a" at the end. Anything to be more confusing..LOL). Right after his marriage to Bambi , he adopted my husband as his son. It is possible he did this because he was the real biological father but, we still have to prove this. What makes it so hard is that all are deceased now and there were no biological siblings to do DNA testing with.
