George hughes(12/14/1906 --- 11/26/1989)
The link in source one provides a well-rounded summary of Mr. Hughes life, with particular attention to his artistic career. Although the summary states he died at the age of 90, the chronology of his birth and death does not agree with this figure.
Since the source indicates that he relocated to Vermont, the death indexes reveal a certificate issued under this name in 1989 in Bennington, Vermont, a municipality not far from Arlington; thereby rendering his date of birth in 1906 and passing away at the age of 92. I came across this illustrator by accident, though deciphering his art signature was a bit difficult to interpret due to the cursive script. |
