I checked with my dad and he thinks those names are his grandfather's siblings. My great-grandfather was russell black born around 1900 and married gertrude englebrect (unsure of the spelling) they had 8 children 2 died as infants. there was russell (my grandfather), dorothy, bob, mary alice, bill, nancy. My great grandfater worked in a grain elevator and developed emphysema and died around 1961. I have no info on his siblings. My dad believes he has had black decendents who resemble us in his class. (he is an instructor for auto mechanics). Does this sound like the same black family? Please let me know. I've been researching for my dad. thanks
