Unfortunately, the online directories at Ancestry are a bit sparse for Lowell. Perhaps next week I can try the library in Lowell to see what I can sort through in the actual directories.
It's seems pretty clear to me that the 4 sons listed in the second obit are Ralph, Rockne, Thomas and Russell. If not for the last sentence referring to several nieces and nephews, I would have thought that the grandchild could be a typo and really mean nephew. Perhaps the directories will offer more clues here as well.
And as to the daughter of Russell, there was nothing I could see in the few directories available. Did Russell remarry to a Dorice, btw? There is a Jas R (Dorice E) listed in the 1964 directory.
