Hi...(sorry I hit the wrong button and just sent your message back to you).. Anyway, here's all I know about my Myrick's: Clarence Oscar Myrick (b. 2 Aug 1884 Franklinville, NY - d. 18 Sep 1946 Great Valley, NY) m. Harriet Kenfield (b. 30 Mar 1877 Franklinville, NY - d. 20 Sep 1958 Gainesville, NY) Son: John Russell Myrick (my gfather) b. 20 May 1912 - d. 22 Nov 1988. daughters: Isabell Myrick (no info.) Irene Myrick m. Alfred Hartwig (no more info.) anything would help but, as you say, this work is like a needle in a haystack. Thanks....Barbara Cooper
