Greetings, According to the 1910 St. Louis, MO census my grandfather, William YOUNGBLOOD, was born about 1866 in Illinois. His parents were also born in Illinois. He was married first to Grace Louise SHERMAN. They had 2 sons - Earl Oliver born 13 October 1895 in St. Louis, MO and Ches (I don't know his exact name). William married second to Minnie Dorthea BENTZ (my grandmother) on 27 September 1905 in St. Louis, MO. They had 1 child - Irma Veronica (my mother) on 17 August 1909. William deserted Minnie and Irma approximately 10 June 1914. They returned to Minnie's home in Kankakee, Illinois. Earl Oliver married Frances ? approximately 4 February 1924. They lived in Chicago and retired in St. Petersburg, Florida. Earl died 13 January 1963 in St. Petersburg. Earl and Frances had 1 child - Arden Noel. She married Donald Francis SMITH. I am searching for any additional information on this family. I'd appreciate anyone's efforts to help me out. Thanks Sandy Bolin bsbolin@rconnect.com
