I am looking for information about Lorie Ann Hardman's (DOB: 22 Jan 1962) family: Ernest Hardman (father; [28 Apr 1933-24 May 1968 due to a plane accident]), Mildred Ann (maiden name unknown; died same day as Ernest in plane accident), their other children: Kathy Hardman/Hillis, Sherri (spelling unknown), and Tina. After their parents died, the children, including Lorie, went to live with their grandparents in Gooding (Ernest Hardman [13 Jul 1906-4 May 1979] and Edith Elizabeth Wheeler [2 Nov 1910-11 May ?]. After their grandparents died, Lorie, Sherri, and Tina went to live in foster homes. Lorie had a son (Michael Hardman) about 1980. She had a romance with Bill Lee Arneson and gave a baby girl up for adoption (me) while she was living in Jerome and going to nursing school. She later married someone with the last name of Raquedan and had another son (Matthew Raquedan). Any information anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated. I'd like to talk to Lorie, her sisters, and their children if possible.
Thank you!

Rachel, I don't know anything about the Ernest you speak of and the other grandchildren of Ernest and Edith. However, the Ernest that is born in 1906... I have a fair bit of info on him/his parents/grandparents. That Ernest's mother is Sarah Alice Britton, who is sister to my great grandfather. Also, Ernest (1906) and Edith had a daughter named Thada or Theda Jo Hardman. Her life span was from 1934 to 1935, and is buried in the McCullough Cemetery at Stone County Missouri.

I'd love to correspond with you. Please feel free to email me at trunkbranches@yahoo.com

Also, for interest... my Mother and grandparents lived in Carey Idaho. After my grandparents retired, they moved to Jerome, where they lived until they passed on.

Love to hear from you.

Your cousin,
Peggy
