Hello! I am trying to research my grandfather (Donald James Calvert) and his mother Loretta Arnold. My grandfather "ran away" (if you will) in 1979 (when I was only two) and was never seen again. We now know he died in Hollywood, FL just 1.5 years ago. But, we want to know who is father was and more about his mother's side (the Arnolds). He never had a father and was raised by his mother and her siblings. The siblings names were Carrie, Elmer, and Bernie (Bernard?). They were all born in Covington, KY to our knowledge in a house on John Street. Their parents died when they were young, and Loretta being the oldest, raised all of her siblings. Loretta, Carrie, Elmer and Bernie all stayed in that house their WHOLE LIVES. They never left. Carrie may have gotten married at some point, but Loretta was the only one to have a child. On the birth certificate of my grandfather it says Leonard Calvert was the father of the child. We are unaware if that is a fake name or a real person. On the internet I can find no record of any of the Arnolds I've mentioned above (Loretta, Carrie, Bernie and Elmer), they don't even come up in the SSDI! Indeed, they may never have recieved Social Security numbers. I am hoping (though I know there is a slim chance) that someone here has also done Arnold genealogy for Kentucky, and that their names may pop up somewhere on your radar, I would love it if you got back to me. Thanks for your time and consideration. LeeAnn
