My aunt's first husband, Ron Black, is the son of Earney Black, Sr. & Grace Ann Cearlock. I have nothing before Earney & Grace. However, I have pictures of their gravestones on my homepage with their birth & death years. They are buried at Fairlawn in Vandalia; IL. Earney's dates are 1894-1958. Grace's are 1903-1980. If you go to http://www.advancenet.net/~conure/geneindex.htm scroll down to the cemetery section & click on Fairlawn in Vandalia, you will be taken to Photopoint where the graves are. Earney & Grace are in the 4th row, second grave. I have that Earney & Grace had 13 children. I believe that Ron Black is still in Vandalia. I will try to get in touch with my aunt to see if she remembers who his grandparents were on Grace's side. Hope this helps a little. sherry
