The picture posted on the brinker family tree looks just like my mother. She kept her past very secret . I do know that she was a waitress abd bartender all her life. She had a son in 1956 and me in 1958. We were placed in a orphange when I was five. Also when she got very sick she did speak of other children and 1 dead child. Several things seem to fit together except she spelled her name Cleo Yavonne brinker . The brinker family tree spells it Cleo lavonne brinker. The brinker family tree states she disappeared in or about 1952 or 54. Please let me know what you think? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
