Summary

Diane Terese Wojan, daughter of Walter A. Wojan and Vera M. Wojan, was born August 4, 1958, and baptized at Holy Cross Church. She graduated from Beaver Island Community School in the Class of 1976 and was reported to have received a Michigan Competitive Scholarship.

Evidence and limits

The 1976 graduation notice identifies her parents and scholarship. A 1958 birth notice under the “Wogan” spelling and a 1967 school honor roll listing her alongside four of her documented siblings corroborate her place in the family recorded at Walter A. Wojan. No held source records her later education or a complete civil identity; as she is plausibly still living, no detail beyond these public school notices is recorded here.
