Where can I find a GrandFather no one admits existing
goodingcr
The man did exist or my Father would not have been born, (Clifford Edward Gooding), somewhere in Ohio, GrandMother was Helen Rowe if the information given was correct. Father was born in Akron Ohio in July 1932.
Never knew either GrandParent because of the odds they all had.

goodingcr on 2012-05-08 01:44:33I am really late in responding to this, Army keeps me very busy. I am unsure if this is an uncle or not, never hear this name mentioned other than my Grandfather.
I met the only Uncle claimed to have been born, I have no idea why there were so many secrets or harshness in the Family back east...guess I will never know.
Thank You for the response.
BarronSV on 2013-01-09 22:23:17Helen Rowe Gooding was my grandmother. She was the mother of Ralph Lewis Gooding of Akron, Ohio. Helen had another son, my dad, Robert Barron. Barron was his adopted name. Helen wouldn't share with my dad who his biological father was. My dad passed away in September 2012.

I have the same problem, There seem to be closed doors in certain area,s especially back in an earlier era, where everything seems to have been kept secret.
