Default Re: Original Title - 1931

I took the original title out of the frame and found mileage logs and oil change stickers documenting the mileage. More documents too. Original owners death certificate Hiram A. Boylan. Death cert lists Hiram’s occupation as a Minister (lifelong). His draft registration listed his occupation as Machinist Ford Motor Company, Highland Park. He bought the car when he was 59 and died six years later in Stockbridge, Michigan from the flu. The car then belonged his wife Teresa. She is listed as co-owner on original title. She kept the car until July 5, 1957 when she sold it so she owned it 26 years.

When sold in 57 the car had 64,954 so this means that the car has been driven 4,476 miles in the last 57 years. I found a list of owners besides the first owner and years owned. I am the seventh.
