Great-Grandfather Albert Franklin Shunk Born:7-9-1879 in Troy, Ohio and his Mother died in 1884 in Miami Co; Ohio and even though his father was alive and above age, back then Men didn't raise Children, and Albert was put in the Children's Home? And then his Father remarried, Albert got to go back home? I got a copy of Albert's ordeal, It make's me real sad to read it? They took him away from his family? I'm sorry just how I feel? It's ok for Children if they didn't have any family or a place to live? I just thought I send my Info? Thank's for listing? Dawn Lehman
