John Farrell (1928-2018) Warren High School class of 1946



1948 Dragon yearbook

1967 Warren City Directory
1983 Warren City Directory

The popularity of John as a baby name is graphed here.  Let's take a look at Olive.


Olive was something of a big deal in the late 19th century -- the 88th most popular name for girls in both the 1880s and 1890s.  She experienced an increasingly severe downward trajectory during the 1st half of the 20th century, falling out of view in 1951.  In 2008, she mounted a comeback, which appears to have lost its momentum in 2014.
