WARNOCK posted by Susan Patterson on Tuesday, September 4, 2007

WARNOCK -- Wilfred Leo WARNOCK, born Nov. 6, 1917 and died April 10, 1990 in Warwick.This was my Great Uncle. I never knew him as I was adopted in Detroit in 1941.He was married to Anna. He was the son of John E. WARNOCK and Agnes, both born in England. I hear Wilfred was athletic -- maybe some knew him in school or has a yearbook picture. I know he had Parkinson's disease.

FRANKLIN, THURMAN posted by John Blair on Friday, September 14, 2007

I'm looking for the marriage or parents of Anthony FRANKLIN and Elizabeth THURMAN. They are found on the 1810 in Smithfield, Providence Co. Rhode Island with their 3 youngest children. By 1820 they have moved to Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. Anthony's birth date is Aug. 11th, 1779 and Elizabeth's is 27th of August 1779. There is an Arnold Franklin that seems to follow them to Pennsylvania, so possibly a brother of Anthony's. Their children were Esek P. (Isaac?), Sarah, M. George, Harriett A., John A., William P. I would love to find more info on parents/ancestry and possible siblings of Anthony's and Elizabeth's. Anyone researching?? Thanks, John Blair

WARNOCK posted by Susan Patterson on Saturday, September 29, 2007

WARNOCK - Wilfred Leo WARNOCK born in Providence in 1917. He probably graduated from Providence High School around 1935-1936. He was athletic, I hear. I was adopted in Michigan in 1941, and have found that Wilfred is an Uncle. He died in Warwick around 1993. He did have Parkinsons Disease. Maybe someone knew him in school and could scan me a high school picture of him. Thank you, Mrs. Susan Patterson (TX.)

GILBERT, ROBERT posted by Pat on Monday, January 21, 2008

I am looking for ancestry on Peter GILBERT of Pawtucket, R.I. .... (married to Leonide ROBERT of Drummondville, Quebec, Canada). I know his mother's first name is Mary.... She was widowed by 1910 and since Peter was born in Masachusetts in 1886, his father had to have died here in the states, sometime betwen 1886 and 1910. It is possible that his father might have been John Nelson GILBERT, but I'm not sure. Looking for any help I can get on Peter Gilbert's parents. They were both supposed to have been born in Fr/Can.
