Swanke family. This scrapbook is brimming full of his military career (Lt. Col. U.S.Army) and family information. He was married to Dorothy Mae Grady, daughter of Lucy May Pearcy Grady Myers. Christ and Dorothy's children were Robert and Jennie Lee. Robert married "Marie" and Jennie married John F. Curry. This is an incredible, touching scrapbook and I would love to see it returned to direct descendants if at all possible. The scrapbook was found in an antique store near Lakewood, Washington. I believe Christ was born and raised in Wheaton, Minnesota and served in Ft. Snelling, MN, Georgia, California and spent time in China / Europe / Korea / Japan. Dorothy was born in Kansas abt. 1909. His son, Robert, was in the Marines, but appears he did not make it his career. Please contact me at sug53@earthlink. net for more information. Thanks! Sue
