In researching my Hardy line I've come across info about Ruth Fern HARDY Erny, born in 1896 in Mullen, Nebraska; then moved to Alden, New York with her husband and four sons. Fern died in Sister Hospital in Buffalo, New York in 1980. Her husband Francis "Frank" C. Erny, was born in Nebraska and died in 1971 in Galena, Missouri. Their sons were Ernest Norman, Harvey Dewain, Charles Walter, and LeRoy Henry. I'm looking for any info on this family. Francis died Monday, Nov 8, 1971 at Galena, Missouri, where he had lived for a number of years. I'm looking for more info about Frank - why was he in Galena? Were there other family members there? Did work take him there? What was the cause of death? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you, Kathleen in OKC
