Surnames: Blakesley, Lee Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GNE.2ACEB/28 Message Board Post: Time to try again to gain some info on Pomeroy. Family lore states that he was orphaned as a young child. In 1880 census he is living with the Robert Lee family, stating that he is 8, born in Indiana, with both parents born in Ohio. His death was August 22, 1958. His death certificate listed no parent names. He might have had a sister.? Any help in my next step to locate his background would be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure what options I have. Other information: married: Elizabeth Sophia Zimmerlie Mar 17 1895 children: David Edward Elmer Cledus Florence Marie Forrest Eldon Dora Kathleen Frances Edna Eunice Euclair Lewis Woodrow Leona Donnabelle Thanks in advance for what ever you can do.
