Summary
Edward McCauley died on July 27, 2018. Beaver Island notices remembered his family’s long island connection, his storytelling and adventurous life, and later corrected the initial notice to identify him as a Korean War Marine veteran.
Evidence limits
The initial account is a community notice and the biographical details are attributed recollections. The later family account is useful corroboration but should be distinguished from an official obituary or military record.
Sources
- The initial notice reported McCauley’s death, birth date, Beaver Island family connections, planned later burial, and an intended interment honoring his wishes. A follow-up corrected the initial omission by identifying him as a Korean War Marine veteran; a 2019 post preserves a later family life story and burial notice.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 13 · t013390
