Serendipity indeed. My genealogy research...Hello! Serendipity indeed. My genealogy research comes and goes (six months off, then two weeks on, with intensity, and so forth). Just on a lark while on a work break, I did some Google searches for ancestors, always curious what fruits the internet has to offer. On a search for Sylvester Falknor, I found your post. Thank you so much for putting this out there. Sylvester (Ralph's father) is my great-great grandfather, Edrie (Ralph's sister) is my great grandmother. Here is a family story you might be interested in: Edrie and her husband Clyde Oneal had a son who they named Ralph (in honor of Edrie's brother). Unfortunately that Ralph also died young. So, when my grandmother (Edrie and Clyde's daughter) had a baby boy, Annie Falknor (Sylvester's wife) told her not to name him Ralph. Sad, but an interesting little family story. By the way, I'm pleased to report that my uncle Ken (not uncle "Ralph") is still alive and well.<br /><br />Thanks again for posting!<br />-Mark<br />Grandville, MichiganAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
