Linda ~

That's great! Thank you for the info and I'm looking forward to reading more about Ralph. I would be forever in your debt if you do have a newspaper clipping on him. I began putting together a scrapbook of all articles, birth certificates, obituaries, etc. I have quite a collection and would love to add something on my great-grand uncle! I have Darlene's family back to 1609 in England. And am more than willing to give you any information I have on Darlene if you would like it.

Are you directly related to Ralph?

And I guess I goofed and typed my info wrong. My records show Darlene and Ralph being married on November 1, 1934. She was married to her first husband, James Vickery, in March 1907. Do you have the names of Ralph's parents and or siblings too?

Thanks once again! I have extensive access to Illinois records through the Dallas library, so if you need anything looked up, don't hesitate to ask.
