Russell Dean Alder of Nebraska
R.D. Alder (as he liked being called) was born outside Hastings Nebraska in 1911. My Grandmother, whom he was destined to marry, was born during the days of '47's yearly festivities that were happening back in Salt Lake City on July 24th, 1913. In 1932,they got married. Grandma's name was Gladys Gertrude Wyman. She came from a healthy Danish family, with great morals and family values. Hard work was nothing to my Grandmother, she started working when she was very young so that she could help the family. After all, she and her brother Vernon were the two oldest out of eleven. The sad part was, The first baby died, then the third and forth. My Great Grandma Wyman was having a heck of a time, keeping children alive.
Great Grandma Wyman Was having babies up 'til 1929.
Grandpa Wyman's name was Carl J. Wyman and Grandma Wymans name was Eda Sophia Wyman, but everywhere you look you see "Edith" for her first name.
Could this be your Carl? This is the only one I found with a wife "eda or edna"

I think I found Russel's parents.
Oh yeah Gladys remarried to my Grandpa Martin. I wasn't sure their marriage date, though. I am sure it was before 1967 because I have Uncle's born in 1951 and 1952 to Gladys and Ray and she (my Grandma) would not have children out of wedlock. She was just that kind of lady.
I know who Russ's Parent are. The are Leroy Elmer Alder and Della Johnson.
Thanks!
Oh, also, Carl Wyman was born in Michigan and sometimes went by Judson Wyman. He married Eda Sphia Sorensen,from Ayre Nebraska. She was born in 1900 and he was born in 1888. His Father was Andoniram Judson Wyman. Andoniram's wife, but not first was Jennie White.
Carl had a brother Claude and a sister Carrie.
But since they are related and that is all we have to go by is someone saying they are were related as brother and sister, no one said whether it be through one of their Jennie White's alternate husbands. So I Claude might me a Jones if I can't find him as a Wyman.
Carl's mother's family.

Wow, this takes me to connecticut where John Wyman said Andonirams family doesn't go because their Michigan people.
Thanks very much!
Well, I did some alternate checking and although the dates were close on Ella we don't still have a good copy here. Grandpa was born in Three Rivers or Kalamazoo Michigan in 1888. He died in 1967 in Hastings Nebraska and was buried there. He has a sister named Carrie and a brother named Claude. I don't know where carrie ended up but I know she married a jones. Grandpas Father is Andoniram Judson Wyman that married a Jennie White from Michigan. I was looking at a Michigan book last night and and though there were Judsons in there and White's I was wondering if when Jennie and Andoniram got married they decided to name one of their children after her ancestors..?
Garandma Wyman was Eda Sophia Sorensen and she was born in Nebraska, born in Denmark, but by then the Wymans had moved to Nebraska and she met Carl Judson Wyman. They were married 6 Oct 1909.
He died 14 April 1967. At least they got to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.
She lived in the Good Sam Community in Nebraska until she died 10 years later.
