My mother, Ruby Louise Boomer, married Garland Oscar Triplett, whose mother was Charlsie Roena Tomas/Thomas. Some erroneously spell her name Charlsie Rowena, but it was Roena. My dad has a sister and an aunt named Ella. My mother, Ruby Louise Boomer first married Robert Allen Thorpe, and they had 3 children. I believe his family was from Virginia. He died pretty young.
