Rita R. Hertrich

I am currently seraching for Rita R Hertrich who graduated from Pittsburgh's South High School in the June class of 1936. Not only do I have her card, but I have also located her senior portrait from the yearbook as well as the following description:

Nickname: "Wee Wee"
Clubs/Activities: Thespians, Senior Leaders, Auto Drivers
A charming miss who worked hard to graduate in leap year.

I have not had much luck finding information on Miss Hertrich, despite numerous searches and hours of research. Suprisingly, I was not even able to locate her in the 1930's census. I did find some other "Hetrich" folk, living in Allegheny county in the 1930's census and their names are as follows:

William Hertrich
Bertha Hertrich
Dorothy Hertrich


Keep in mind, that this information is from Rita's high school calling card and she may have a married name too. If you know or are related to Rita, please email me as I would like to return her calling card to it's rightful owner.
