Jill Traina

30 October 2026 — Family-confirmation update. Joe subsequently confirmed in this conversation that Gregory McGuigan and Kathryn (Kate) Foster married on October 3, 2026. The earlier September 24 account below describes the wedding as planned and is retained as historical testimony, not its current status. This correction is based on Joe's explicit confirmation, not merely the passage of the planned date; an original marriage certificate has not been independently inspected.

Earlier record retained as research history:

September 24, 2026 — Joe Stuart family testimony: Married Chuck McGuigan (born May 28, 1954). Children Brian, Alyse, Lauren and Gregory (Greg). This testimony supports the McGuigan married-name connection previously retained only as a contributed-tree lead. Brian married Lara Trenkenschu; their children Brady, Eleanor and Henry. Greg plans to marry Kathryn (Kate) Foster October 3, 2026; not yet a completed marriage. Source [[evidence:WEB-20260924-005641-ffbcd64b|Joe Stuart family testimony]]. Independent documentary verification is unconfirmed.

Earlier research retained: Jill Traina. Aunt of Joseph James Stuart. family-supplied compilation; original records pending. Named as one of Alfred and Camille’s four children. Parents recorded by project IDs: fiori_father, camille_criola. Source: Aunt Lori family history compilation supplied 20 September 2026; evidence 300.00.001. The Geni record, viewed through MyHeritage, names Jill McGuigan born Traina, parents Alfred Joseph Traina born Fiore and Camille Michalena Traina born Criola, and sibling Sandra Stuart. It gives no spouse, children or vital dates. McGuigan is recorded only as an unconfirmed surname lead; no husband or living-status claim is inferred. The record’s omissions do not replace the complete sibling group in Lori’s source. Criola parentage and original marriage evidence: Camille Traina, Illinois, Cook County Deaths, 1871–1998: born 29 September 1918 Illinois; died 7 October 1985 Chicago; age 67; widowed; Queen of Heaven cemetery; entry 619713. Parents explicitly Paul Criola and Angeline Vallo. Jill Traina is listed under Other People, without a stated relationship in the inspected entry. Exact birth and death dates, married surname, cemetery and the Jill association agree with Aunt Lori’s Camille. The tree now records Paul and Angeline as Camille’s parents, supported by this indexed death record and the earlier Criola household/SSA evidence. The original certificate is unavailable online in this entry, so informant knowledge and transcription remain unverified. The separately retained Carmella census profile is a likely duplicate of Camille, but has not been merged solely on a contributed-tree attachment. [300.10.029]
