Hi. I have been trying to find information regarding my grandfather Jack Ursel Taylor. He was married to Dorothy Marie Louise Wagner and had 2 children, Jack Jr. and Jeffrey. Jack and Dorothy divorced in 1960 and the trail goes cold from there. I’m not sure if this is the same person in your photos, but any information would be greatly appreciated.
Jack’s son, Jerry Taylor live in Mechanicsburg, PA. His father, was my first cousin but a generation ahead of me. I remember him visiting in our home and sitting down at the piano and playing boogie woogie. Jack played entirely by ear. His son has a degree in music

Hi Robert:
Charlie Clark here, myself and my sister Janet share a common ancestry by our Grandmother, Eva, whose father was John Samuel McCormick, mother Sarah Ann Burk. Our mother was Marie Hardy, who would have been a cousin. (I think?) I spoke with you once awhile back on the phone.
Regards,
Charlie
