Hi, I am looking for relatives of Robert Cifra b. Sept. 16, 1925 New Castle, PA and d. June 21, 2002 in Hesperia, CA.

He was married to Ethel Ridenbaugh. I believe her to still be alive. Ethel was a daughter of William Ridenbaugh and "Nellie" Ellen McLaren. I would love to have up to date info on this family, if you are related. The McLarens are a main line for me.

Thanks,
Nic

Nellie (Ellen) Ridenbaugh was my great-aunt. How far have you researched the McLaren line? My aunt only had a son named Jack not a daughter though.

I have the McLaren line traced a few generations back in Scotland. I would be more than happy to share what I have with you, if you would like, email me at remyrhone@yahoo.com. I am starting a new job this week, and my brother is having surgery, but I will get back to you as soon as I can. I have Nellie's obituary and in fact, she has three children listed. Jack is one of them.

Nellie's parents, if you don't have the info, were William McLaren and Margaret Porteous. Though not very good, I have a photograph of Margaret. William died in Scotland. Margaret came to New Castle, and lived in a rather large white house that is still on the st. behind Pizza Hut, if you are from New Castle.

Her brother, John "Scotty" Frederick McLaren was my Great-Grandfather.
