  "My Dad was Phillip Camacho Jr 25 May 1926 - 4 November 2007.  His parents were Phillipe [Felipe] (Mexico, 1902 - 1962) and Feliciano (Trevino) Camacho (b Thurber, TX, 1903 - Nov 6,1995).  My Dad was married to "MiMi" (real name Socorro Monsivais (27 June 26 in Monterrey, Mexico - July 13, 2007) on 23 June 1962.  My Mom [name ?] just died of Alzheimer's at Delmar Gardens of Lenexa [Johnson County, Kansas].  My Dad also just died there.  I was searching for relatives.  I think Rudy Camacho was born 13 July 1943, died in Chicago, IL 12 December 2006.  My siblings (Dad's kids from Guadalupe Conchola are Phil, Rita, Jerry and Mary)."

  Phillip Camacho
  Birth 25 May 1928 Kansas City, Missouri
  Death Date 4 Nov 2007
  Father Phillip Camacho
  Mother Felicina [Feliciana] Trevino
  SNN 496247043
  Apr 1943 Name listed as PHILLIP CAMACHO
  
  A burial marker in Mt St Marys Cemetery, where several other Camachos are buried in Kansas City, reports Phillip as the husband of Rafaela Martesa, but has no dates.  A Camacho genealogy reports Phillip Camacho Jr's wife as Guadalupe Conchola.
  
  Guadalupe (Lupe) Conchola would be the Lupe C reported as Phillip's wife in the 1959 and 1960 city directories.  Yet according to Camacho family genealogies, she married Lupe married Ruben Anaya in 1961.  Genealogies have no marriage date for Phillip and Lupe Conchola, and no record has been found.
  
  If Phillip married Socorro Monsivais in 1962 as his daughter reports above, and Lupe married Ruben in 1961, they would have divorced about 1960, or shortly after the city directory came out.   A divorce was very unusual for a Catholic family in that era.
  
  To have four children during that time, they had to be married about 5 years.  Since they were together in the 1960 directory (or at least when it was being compiled for publication), they must have married about 1955.
  
  Felicia Freisner seems to be indicating that her mother is Socorro Monsivais.  But this conflicts with the burial record name for Phillip's wife.  His son Phillip Camacho (born about 1949), in his Camacho genealogy, reports our Phillip's second wife as Rafaela Martesa.
  
  He reports dates of birth and death matching the years on the grave, and those reported by Felicia Feisner for Socorro Monsivais.  But the months differ.  The birth and death years are the same as for the two except the months differ.  The dual burial marker for Rafaela Martesa and Phillip Camacho has no dates for Phillip.
  
  Felicia tells us that both her mother (Rafaela? Socorro?) died in Lenexa (Kansas) in July 2007 and her father (Phillip) died in the same place in November 2007.  These dates match other records for them.  This is on the Kansas side of the River from Kansas City, Missouri, where other members of the Camacho family are buried.
  
  Rafaela is buried there, and Phillip's name is on the joint headstone, but no dates are on his side, only his name.  Lacking other information, however, I think it is safe to conclude that Phillip is also buried there, but for some reason the dates were never engraved.
  
  Phillip's Social Security record reports that his last residence was in Kansas City, Missiouri, but his daughter reports (see above) that he and his wife both died in a nursing home in Lenexa, Kansas, where they had lived for some time.
