Hi, Hope this helps a little. The children were born in Illinois, I am wonder if your father and Lorene moved back to Illinois (assuming that she had family there) I see that you have a worldtree, I assume you are aware there were two other's researching your family history? One has RENOUR as living, maybe there know more. http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=tonyschiffer& id=I14957 California death index http://vitals.rootsweb.com/ca/death/search.cgi BLACK, Cheryl L 4/25/1957 Mother's maiden REDNOUR born ILLINIOIS, died Alameda county 9/16/1960 BLACK, Kaye Denise 7/21/1958 Mother Maiden REDNOUR, Father Last WARREN (I would assume a miss transcription)born ILLINIOIS died ALAMEDA County 11/19/1959 To send for an obit in Alameda County: I have sent to them before, they have always responded within the two weeks.

She died 16th Sept 1960 aged 4 after her dress caught fire whilst playing with a lighter. She was living at 9211 A Street Oakland at the time of her death. Also my sister Kaye Denise BLACK who died 19th Nov 1959 of heart problems aged 1. She lived at 170 Orange St Oakland. I am trying to do geneology from Ireland and Im finding it difficult to access libraries etc. My father J Warren BLACK was married to Lorene (Rednour) BLACK. They split after the girls died and I cant find Lorene again. Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
