NW Okie's Corner

It takes awhile, but you can make distant family connections if you put yourself out there through this web media. I just love all of this!

About two years ago in The OkieLegacy Ezine, dated 2010-02-08, Vol. 12, Iss. 6, we featured a 30 November 1935 letter from my grandmother's cousin in Tesla, West Virginia that was mailed to Constance Warwick McGill in Alva, Oklahoma. It was from her cousin (Ethel G. Tinney) in Tesla, West Virginia that had heard from her youngest son Forrest Noel Tinney, that Constance's mother, Signora Belle Gwin Warwick, had died in 1934.

I searched back through my family tree in search for Ethel G. Tinney and see that the connection of Ethel and Constance were cousins via Constance's mother's (Signora Belle Gwin) older brother, Walter P. Gwin. Ethel Gertrude Gwin Married John Campbell Tinney and had seven children with the oldest son dying at 3 months of age. Children were: Paul Noble (1906-1906); Russel (1907-1972); John B. (1912-1982); Robert W.; Clarence Keith (1917-2005); Cecil Kyle (1917-); Forrest Noel (1920-2003).

Letitia Tierney commented on the OkieLegacy Ezine link above and says, "I just found this article about Ethel Gwin Tinney who was my great-grandmother. Her youngest as mentioned in the letter was my beloved grandfather Forrest Noel Tinney. If we can provide more info for you I can be contacted at the provided email."

I will be contacting this distant cousin to see what family stories and legacies that I might be able to add to my DEVER-GWIN-TINNEYancestry.

Good Night and Good Luck researching your ancestry!   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
