HI listers,I have had major problems here with mail so have not been able to get back to the queries about "my" Greens,Thankyou to all the nice people who wrote offering help with look-ups I appreciate it very much.I'm afraid I dont know very much at all,,,with no resources available that help me any it is making it a tad difficult ! Well here goes,,,just dont moan too loudly!!! WILLIAM FRANKLIN GREEN birth approx 1890 married LULA SMITH both were born Illinois,,,supposedly Christian County They had 3 children that I know of (maybe more) BILLIE OLE,,,,was born either Decator or Peoria MILDRED BETTY Williams father was Norwegian and changed his surname once arrived in America,,,I have no idea what his fathers real name was.I know William and Lula died in Illinois,,,,,but,,,,and this one is going to get the loudest groans,,,,,an old friend of theirs "thinks" William died in 1965 and Lula in 1975.Not a lot to go on folks sorry but thats all I have been able to find out,I would love to be able to find Williams parents and find where in Norway they came from and their "real" name but with such a small amount of information I dont hold much hope of that happening.Thankyou so much to all for wading through this e-mail, I appreciate you taking the time. On the off-chance that anyone recognises "my" Greens I would love to hear from you.Happy researching everyone. Wendy,,,,from the beautiful Illawarra region New South Wales Australia
