I have been searching for any information on the gentleman above who would be my.... great-grandfather on my mother's side. Interesting enough I have been unable to find much in the time I have spent - up until last night I was spelling his name with and "I" or an "E". I just happened to come across someone spelled with a "U". I sent for his death certificate with the hopes that I found one shred of evidence that this person really existed and possibly find out a little more. Just wanted to say Hi and wish everyone luck in their search.
