In reply to:
Harold Earl Bellinger
David Bellinger 8/25/03
first a correction ... my grandfather's middle name was Samuel not Earl.He was given his father's first name as his middle name.
He did indeed marry Marion Elizabeth Ogden on April 16, 1932.
They had 5 daughters and 1 son. The oldest daughter is now deceased.There are 17 grandchildren (of which I am one), 37 Great Grandchildren and 9 Great Great Grandchildren.
Harold's brothers and sisters include Maude, Mable, Norman, Gertrude, Ethel May, Amber, George and Catherine.
Catherine was never married but had a son Clayton.We called him Cady and she was known as Aunt Cash.
John Bellinger (my 3rd cousin)is grandson of Norman and the person who has done all our research.
I would think that much of the info he has provided to us has come from the Bellinger book... however, he has so much more info including tombstone locations, pictures, etc. and many personal facts of Bellingers in our direct line.
He has done all his research by going all over the countryside gathering information.Maybe he has even talked to you .... if not it would be worthwhile for the two of you to meet personally.
