Albert ("Bert") was a minor-league pro baseball player--from 1904-1914; then in the bldg.trade afterwards; sadly falling to his death, from a construction tower, circa 1938- perhaps back in the midwest???(or perhaps CA). Bert married a (Le?)Nora (May?) ?? maiden name???---and they WERE living in Ogden, Ut 1904 and in Salt Lake City (near Bert's sister, Alma (SPENCER) ROBINSON (and her hus- band Otis Orin Robinson) in 1918. A city directory search of 1917-1919 shows Albert working as a "switchman" for a local Smelter company. This corres- ponds with his 1918 WWI draft registration card showing same career/location (at 333 N. 1st North, in Salt Lake City, UT). What i am TRYING to ascertain is....a) did Bert and Nora SPENCER "have" ANY CHILDREN???...b)names/dates/places for them, as well as...c) where/when did Bert (and Nora) die?- and....d)where is Bert (&/or Nora)buried??? If ANYONE knows ANYTHING no matter how small a "clue"-- please contact me direct,at.... <dimari_@hotmail.com> --would love to find my 2nd/3rd,etc. living Spencer cousin descendants (IF ANY??) of Bert and Nora, today! I have TONS of Spencer/Robinson stuff to exchange--Old Spencer/Robinson pix; genealogical charts/info; family tales;etc.,etc. So if you are OF MY FAMILY or connected somehow (laterally?) please get in-touch! Thanks ever so much---diane (spencer)
