Stephanie, when you start you can definitely handle 2-3 at once. As you get into it you will have to slow it down. Good luck!

I must have missed Mary in the information above, lol. Do we know if he had children with Mary and when they were married. Also, if you can provided either copies of the 1900 and 1910 marriage certificates it might give us a bit more information. If…

Was he born in Texas? What was the first wife's name? I found an RM Stanley in 1910 in Johnson, TX I have attached the record, hopefully it pulls up fine. If I am correct let me know and I will look for 1900 as well. Good luck.

Burr Oak Cemetery, post 2
As the investigation furthers into the Burr Oak Cemetery the police have stated that many people gave the local authorities (Alsip Police) tips on the problems at the cemetery in 2005. Electricians and others reported seeing bones, coffins and broken stones in piles. Why is it that the local authorities did not look into this.

Mykola Davydchenko said… - Thank you for your reply dear Terri O'Connell. Mr. Porai-Koshets from Kiev gave me link www.genealogywise.com/group/russiaancestry/forum/topics/poray-koshetz with your anouncement of your grandfather research. He claims he has information on Anatoly Petrovich Porai Koshets. If you'll write me in private, I can give you his email for direct contact. I insist on private for antispam reasons.
As for me, yes I am Ukrainian geologist and researchin mainly family of Counts of Holy Rome Empire Morkov (AKA Morcow, Morkoff) and related to them families. Thank you.
