Hello all! I'm researching my husband's maternal great-grandparents. His grandfather was Bernard Vernon Doyle, born 21 NOV 1907 in Breese (Clinton County), Illinois. His parents were Peter Doyle and Sophia Ann Dollars. Bernard married Gladys Fay Walton on Jan. 17, 1920 in St. Louis, MO and he died May 28, 1972 in St. Louis.
I don't have any information on his parents, other than Sophia is apparently the daughter of a Cherokee Indian woman.
Peter and Sophia divorced, and she married a William (Paul) Mannwaring, but I don't know anything about her second marriage. I know they didn't have any children.
I've check the census records -- there is no listing for a Peter Doyle, Bernard Vernon Doyle, Bernard Doyle, Vernon Doyle or Sophia Dollars, Sophia Doyle or Sophia Mannwaring. Unless, of course, I'm just missing it. I'm starting to believe that this family hid whenever the census takers came around! :)
Any help on the Doyle family would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
