So far, no luck. It seems Lynn Leroy Black was born in Washington state, and his parents came from Oregon or Missouri. Lynn had 3 sons, Robert, Thomas, and Gene. Robert and Thomas are still alive, but Gene was killed in 1970 in Oregon. I have not been able to find any info of the Lynn Black or his wife, "Blackie" Florence Schaller.
