Her parents were Sylvester and Alice Arnold, though I think that their last name is misspelled. Frank's middle name was Waldo.<br /><br />A couple other facts that MIGHT help. Darrell's middle name was William. The witnesses to Stanley and Mabel's marriage were M.F. and Dorothy Scott, so perhaps they were related.<br /><br />Also, maybe we could locate Stanley's daughter, the Betty E. Or Mabel's son, Richard Reynolds. I've learned over the years not to exclude ANYONE when searching for living family -- it's through seemingly distant connections like these I've answered questions about close relatives that were nearly impossible to even hope for answers for...Samnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044799906733098528.post-32518273671881333512010-06-06T05:16:26.002-04:002010-06-06T05:16:26.002-04:00Re: Darrell & Frank

Allen St. received word Thursday that her brother-in-law, Frank W Thompson, 56, of Long Beach, Calif., died Wednesday.<br /> "Mr. Thompson, a painter, resided with a niece. He was the last of his immediate family, being preceded in death by his parents and two brothers.

I find no Zetterlund's (or other variations of that name) in Long Beach at any time.<br /><br />I've checked both addresses non the marriage cert., hoping one would give me a church that we might be able to call but no luck there. I've also searched for C.W. Ridenour, who married Stan and Mabel, for any information but I find nothing of worth.<br /><br />Finding Darrell and Frank has been a problem as well. I've had luck in my own research with finding family members of people related to who I'm searching for (I've busted down many a brick wall this way!) but I can't get a handle on the brothers...<br /><br />Still here...still looking!Homegrown {& the Bug}https://www.blogger.com/profile/16425145855413263833noreply@blogger.com
