Don't know if this is your Frank? He has the same birth date as the one above. From familysearch. |

Yes looks like the right family details here. |

Was he born in Colorado, or just living there for a while? |

|
Alison | Report | 12 Aug 2010 22:09 |
yes - Frank was born in colorado springs ->>> or looks like he moved there if your latest info is the right relation. |

Have a look at this. Was Joan, the daughter's first name, or could it have been her middle name? |
|||
|
Alison | Report | 12 Aug 2010 22:22 |
yes - I know of Joan - so looks like you are onthe right track with regards the info on Frank Platek |

There is a tree on Ancestry with these names on. Catherine was born in Bradford, Yorkshire to Clifford and Lilac 'Lily' Gill. |

Thanks, I am not subscribed to Ancestry - just seen her tree - but can't view all. |

You could use their 14 day free trial to get in touch with her. I think they're still doing it. Katherine hasn't logged in to ancestry for over 6 months but she would see if you sent her a message. |

Thank you - you have found out so much information for me - I wonder if all those children that are mentioned are Frank's siblings? - mother's name is different - unless she changed it to Margaret when she moved to America. |

You're welcome Alison, glad to have been of help. Haven't been able to find any info on the marriage though, sorry. |

Sorry for coming in late on this thread. Elsie Gledhill was my father's cousin and I am still in touch with Frank and Elsie's daughter, Joannie, who now lives in Minesota. |
