3. | SAVAGE, Thomas Edward (2.Margaret2, 1.MIchael1) was born in 1917 in Niagara Falls, Niagara County, NY; died on 23 Jan 1945 in Ammerschwihr, Alsace, France. Notes: Niagara Gazette February 25, 1945 FALLS MAN LOST LIFE CARRYING BATTLE TO ENEMY Lieutenant Savage Listed as Dead after Missing in Action 12 Months. Second Lieutenant Thomas E Savage, husband of Mrs. Mary T. Savage, of 3000 La Salle avenue, missing in action since January 23, 1945, during the savage fighting near Colmar, France, is now presumed to be dead, according to a War department letter received by his family recently. Lieutenant Savage, a son of Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Savage, of Whitney avenue, this city, and father of a young daughter he had never seen, was a platoon leader with the 112th Infantry and was in action less than a month when he was listed as missing while leading a patrol trying to locate enemy positions which were holding up his company's advance. In the message to Mrs. Savage announcing the Falls officer's presumed death, the War department revealed the heroic circumstances surrounding Lieutenant Savages sacrifice. "Since your husband. Second Lieutenant Thomas E. Savage, was reported missing in action January 23," 1945. the War department has entertained the hope that he survived and that information would be revealed dispelling the uncertainty surrounding his absence. However, as in many cases, the conditions of warfare deny us such Information. The record concerning your husband shows that he was a platoon leader of Company A, 112th Infantry. He led a daylight patrol out at Ammerschwihr to try and locate enemy positions which were holding up his company's advance. As he with four others were attempting to cross a large break in the snow-covered vineyards of the area they were fired on by enemy machine guns and had to remain under cover. Another machine gun forced the remainder of the patrol to withdraw, leaving your husband and the other four behind. A relief party was sent out Immediately but after a full day's search returned without success. Ammerschwihr is located about five miles northwest of Colmar, France. Full consideration has recently been given to all available information bearing on the absence of your husband. Including all records, reports and circumstances. These have been carefully reviewed and considered. In view of the fact that 12 months have now expired without the receipt of evidence to support a continued presumption of survival, the War department must terminate such absence by a presumptive finding of death." A graduate of Niagara Palls high school, and former Main office employe of the Carborundum company, Lieutenant Savage entered the army in December, 1942. and went overseas in December, 1944. In addition to his wife and parents, he is survived by a daughter Barabara Ann, a sister, Virginia Machelor, and a brother James Savage, all of this city.
