My great grand mother, Luella Youngblood's father was Thomas. If Ernest is a cousin to my great aunt, Ruth Austin, then we have a connection between the Austins. My mom's mom was Lodema Esther O'Connor Black. Her Mom was Luella and her dad was Michael O' connor. I live north of Rrand Rapids Mi., and the next time I go to G.R. I'll stop into the Library and do some research on the Austins and the Youngbloods. I will let you know what I find out. That will be next week. I will stay in touch. Linda.
