Well, I had a stepfather that I always thought was my father, until the age of about 10, I loved him dearly, because he never wanted me to know. His name was Pleasant Alexander Pybas. From what I gather he was from Tenn. he had a brother,that died and I remember him saying that he was a doctor and my stepfather carried this black leather bag with him always, that was many a year ago. he and my mother seperated in the 1940s and he moved to baltimore Maryland at the beginning of the second wold war to work,I never have found out whether he and my mother were ever married or not, but they had a son named William Robert Pybas,who died in Oct of 2001,who lived in Ellicott City, Md. He married Elizbeth Bowers of baltimore in the 1950s, they had four daughters, lost one daughter when she was grown to complications of Diabetes . Years ago I heard from his wife that they had tried to trace the family and that they were from England.Thats as much as I know about the Pybas clan. If this helps you out any I'm glad because its a job trying to put the pieces of you'r roots together when you were never told anything, but thats the way it was back then. I made sure my kids know what i know and I'm putting it down on paper so they won't forget
