Good Evening, I have been doing some genealogy spring cleaning, and came upon something I cannot believe I even forgot I had! My father, Walter Charles LUCAS, Jr. died in 1989 from a long bout of stomach cancer. My Mother and I were going through all of their old photos/papers/memorabilia. In the papers there was an article cut from the Akron Beacon Journal dated November 11(?) 1961 (?) (these are very difficult to read). My Mom made a copy of the article, and it is really hard to read, actually, mostly unreadable. I can pick out that Jim AIKEN was born in 1900. The article is about Jim AIKEN, and ex-ZIP football coach 1936-1939. I asked Mom why this article was in Dad's papers, and she replied that "Your Father said he was an Uncle or a Cousin, I don't remember which, right now." Then she went on to say. "I remember the day he cut it out, he was crying". This sort of threw me for the proverbial loop. My Dad never finished high school, so, I know he did not go to college. I cannot find any name connections to tie this AIKEN to my LUCAS family. Does any one know of this AIKEN family? I would sure love to eblab with someone who may be able to give me a helping hand. Thanks so much, Joyce Lucas Dever, near Seattle skipdever@earthlink.net
