I AM CURRENTLY ATTEMPTING TO FIND A STARTING POINT FOR A GENEALOGICAL SEARCH FOR MY FATHER.THE ONLY INFO I HAVE IS THIS;Date of birth:December 24, 1890-1894 Place of birth:Gramby, Newton County, Missouri IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT HIS PARENTS DIED WHEN HE WAS VERY YOUNG AND HE WAS RAISED BY HIS GRANDPARENTS, MATERNAL OR PATERNAL, I DONT KNOW.He married my mother, Ruth Eva Turner, in September 1923 in Joplin, Missouri.I was born in 1927, my only sibling, a brother, was born in 1933.My father passed away in 1937 in Joplin.I understand that he had been married before he married my mother....and had two other children, both daughters, from previous marriage or marriages.He owned a restaurant in Joplin at one time.I think he lost it when depression hit.He was also a musician....I was told that he did write music, and became a house painter after losing the restaurant. My brother and I were adopted into separate families after our father's death.....I to a family in California, he to one in Missouri.I HOPE SOMEONE OUT THERE CAN GIVE ME A STARTING POINT.I HAVE HAD NO LUCK IN OBTAINING A BIRTH CERTIFICATE OR FINDING ANY LINK IN THE 1900 MISSOURI CENSUS-SOUNDEX. | |
