Surnames: Palmer Ritchie Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/IFB.2ACE/1037.1.1.1.2.1.2.1 Message Board Post: Hi, yes Joseph was my father in law, I married his son Joe in '86, divorced and he passed away in 2001. I never knew his mom, I believe her maiden name was Ritchie, does that sound right? Joe sr lived in Kenosha WI and passed away there. They originally came from NW Wisc, we went to a reunion in Spooner once, lots of Palmers there I believe. Adele has/had a sister in Kenosha named Messersmith, husband Orville thats all I can tell you.There still is a phone under Orvilles name, if you want that. Joe has/had a brother Jack(John), but I cant find him in the phone book. The Joe I was married to has 3 children, dont know where any of them are. Please write again. Nancy Palmer
