The only information that I have is what I have been able to get from family and that is not much. I have a letter that Irene wrote in 1958 and they were living in Fresno , maybe if I had a city directory for that time period I could look up the address that is on the letter. She mentions the name "Pete" and I'm guessing that is her husband. So that is where I'm stuck at. Uncle George lived with his brother, Eugene(my grandfather) until he got real sick and they put him in a nursing home in Houston. I don't know if he and Lizzie ever divorced and on his SSDI he is listed as a widower. So that is where I'm at and if you can offer any suggestions to me as to what my next step should be, I'd greatly appreciated it.

I know that Earl C. died in Dallas, Tx. and Jesse died in Mineral, Nev. I don't have anything on the girls so it is possible that he is kin.
