Research Notes

Need something to work with ... Can anyone provide another date or family member or location?

Any idea why a book on missing Darnell men in California (with associations to Arkansas and Illinois) would be at the Cincinnati, Ohio Library? Could there be an Ohio-Illinois-Arkansas-California migration path connection?

With no progress on this profile since 2017, I have contacted a librarian in Cincinnati, Ohio to see if it is possible to get an image of the page and adjacent pages that referenced these 2 Darnell men. The book is not allowed to be loaned. IF there is a G2G volunteer that has easy access to the Cincinnati, Ohio Library, please consider retrieving this info so that we can take another mini-step forward.

FATHER: Coke B Darnell

1. I have not been able to locate a Coke B Darnell in California OR Illinois. Is there a possibility that his family came from Ohio (first) prior to Coke's birth?
2. Why is our only source ... a book on California Counties - only found in Cinncinatti, Ohio? Did the Darnells have some association to Ohio?
3. Which County in California had an association to these two Darnell men?

Fresno, Tulare, or Kern County, California #Did the father die in California?

1. Needs profile of his own with subsequent linking back to this profile and bio.

MOTHER: Who?

1. I'll go out on the limb of assumptions on this ... I think we can all agree - there is a mother in this equation. (LOL)
2. Needs a profile of her own with subsequent linking back to this profile bio.

SIBLINGS: ?

WIFE:  ?

1. Was there ever a marriage ... or wife's name?

CHILDREN: ?

1. Were there any children?
