GG of Pollie Cox & Millard Filmore Gumm
Looking for any true leads. I keep butting my head or so it seems. Ina Gumm-Norman daughter of Pollie & Millard was my grandmother through Ruth Norman-Thue.

Hi!
My name is Joslyn (Gumm) Whitt. Try searching for Gum. I found a Millard Gum and Pollie. I'm not sure if you and I share a "branch" but I thought I remember someone talking about a Pollie in my family. I'll ask my grandmother today. I know I have a Merritt and an Ida who are brother and sister. They would be my Grandfather's uncle and aunt.
Gum is the more common spelling as far as I know. For my family the double m was a misprint on the birth certificate so my father has a different spelling from the rest of the family. I'll post again when I talk to my grandmother. Good luck!

Hey,
Sorry. The names didn't ring a bell for the grandmother. But like I said earilier, try searching for Gum instead. She did say that father back Gum was more common.
Hope that was helpful!

Thank you. Millard's grandfather was Barry Gum and grandmother was Nancy Baker. I believe his mother to be Clarinda Gumm. Father unknown. Just in case any of that rings a bell. Nancy was black so I don't know if they were not recognized as family. Thanks again! Gayle

Hi, my name is Carole Ona Brown Talbott. My grandmother is Ona Gumm Griffore, who is also a daughter of Millard and Polly. The information I have comes from Ona before she died in 1996. I would love to hear from any of you related to Ray, Roy, Ira, Iva, Ila, Una or Ina. I remember going to visit Aunt Ila in Cadillac but only vague memories of the other aunts, and sadly none of the uncles. Do you know which ones lived in Manton?
