Wow! Your information is very interesting to me. Joseph Francis Eckery was my maternal grandfather. He never wanted to talk about his family. His mother died when he was very young, and he was pretty much raised by a step-mother. His mother's maiden name was Josephone Marie Menard, so your information HAS to me about my grandfather's family. He had two wives prior to Alice. The first one was my maternal grandmother, Bertha Helen Johnston, born 8/12/1903 in Paola, Kansas. They had a son and two daughters: Richard Eugene Eckery, Donna Elizabeth Eckery (my mother) and Gloria Jean Eckery. Richard Eugene (known as Gene) has passed away, but my mother and aunt are still living in California. My grandparents divorced in about 1939. He married a second time. I don't believe there were any children from that marriage, and I don't know her name.
