It took some time to work this out but I think your grandfathers name is either:

Floyd Robert and sometimes Robert Floyd. Minnie was born in Iowa

Noggin,

Thank you for the info.

Elva martin we knew as "Glee" and she gave her middle name to my uncle Vernon who was 3 years older than I "Glee." We all thought that was weird.....never saw the name spelled as you have it. Looking for birth certificates...might not find any!

Her mother I have listed as Hazel Elizabeth Larsen Blew 30 Nov 1892 - 13 Sep 1969.

Your last post has been the most accurate. Minnie M Pantier however, is another issue. I have two...one born in WV and one in IA. The birth date: 27 Jun 1892.

Robert Floyd Martin, I have born in Iowa to Douglas and Jane(Oviat)Martin, born 13 May 1887. Working on his parents now....The search continues!

Well, You have NOW thrown a bunch of stuff that smudges everything!

Minnie M. Cazett/Pantier??? The marriage doc may be the telling piece we need. Making more sense.

Rod

Just hit me! Cloyd and Floyd each married a Minnie! Cloyd would be my Great Uncle! I am not insane after all!

Rod

I find this site useful and its free!

I would not know where to search for Birth In the USA I live near Liverpool in the UK

Or am I??? I have to get all this info and digest it....Thank You.

Your family seems to like changing their christen names around.
