would anyone connect with me regarding information to what I copied here as an email discussion between a relative and myself below -
- a relative sent me the following information related to a uron-Bodle marriage and "family were in the shipbuilding trade".-
It is possible that my grandmother assumed that her father's line was Swedish but that the missing Swede did not come through the Uron name but some other branch. She was a dear woman but got things confused on occasion. Her father, George Justice Uron, was the last riverboat captain on the Delware River. He piloted the ferry that went between Philadephia and Camden. Several previous generations of the family were in the shipbuilding trade. Was that a chosen profession for the Viking types in the area? More likely, the shipyards of Philly attracted a lot immigrant labor.
I just did some research on our Leonard Uron. He married Magaret Bodle, and there are nine children listed. However, this list gives two named "John," two named "James," and another two named "George." We might assume that these are duplicate listings (or possibly children that died and the next child born was given the same name, however unlikely). Or we might that other Ancestry users have different dates for these children. Anyway, we have five different names for this Leonard's children: John, James, George, May, and Effie.
please connect with me regarding this -
