The 1910 census has a Ethel M. Parks age 12 listed as a daughter to George H. Parks and Margaret D. Parks. There are also six other siblings - Henry age 16, Anna age 15 (then Ethel), Rose age 10, George age 7, John age 7, William age 5, and Martin age 2. They listed Massachusetts as their place of birth. They were living in Springfield, Mass. In the 1920 census, Ethel is still listed with George and Margaret as being single. They were still living in Springfield. In 1930, Ethel M. Ruff is living in East Longmeadow and so is George H. Parks. Send me your e-mail address and I will be happy to send the census records to you.

They later divorced. I would love to have the marriage date for this couple. Gaston died out west, but Ethel continued to live in Hamblen County. She was born January 5,1898 and died January 6,1972. Anyone know where she is buried?? or who her parents were?? > Thanks, > Marie
