I am looking for any information on the descendants of John Polk Risinger (b.1851-d.1938)
He married Martha Isabelle Campbell. His children were listed as follows: Joe, Julia Ann,
James K, William Colman, Lucinda, Joseph Lee, Nettie F. Nannnie C.
I believe that Nannie C is my Grandmother. I will try to relate as much info as I can from
my Mother's accounts and what I remember my Grandmother telling me as a child. Nan's father
died when my mother was a child, which correlates to the year of John's death. My Mom called
her Grandmother "Granny Bell" which I believe to be short for Isabelle. My Mother had an uncle
Joe, Jack, and Jim K ( which I believe is James K.). Her aunts were Julia and Nadaline( which I
believe to be Nettie).
My Grandmother related stories of 1 brother that was a school teacher. He was killed in a play
accidently when someone packed a gun with paper that was used as a prop in the play. I believe
this is William Colman. She also had a sister Cindy that drowned. I believe this is Lucinda.
I know that Julia married (unknown) and had two children: Willene (no children) and Colman (had
children). Her Aunt Nadaline (Nettie) married Billy Dawson.
My Grandmother married a Burnaman and had one son Murray. Then she married Robert Eugene Ferguson
and had two children: Robert Eugene Jr and Nan ( my Mother).
Please help me find their descendants. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
