Just found the marriage for Norman Elmer Gambrel, married a Gladis Hoover in Des Moines, Iowa on August 21, 1913.Norman's father wasLouis A. Gambrel, his mother was Emma Kenyon.Norman was born in Bennett, Nebraska.On the marriage certificate Norman's middle name is shown as his first name, the middle name was Elmer.It shows Elmer N. Gambrel.Norman Gambrel is my grandfather, he died in Des Moines, Iowa.I don't have much history on them, just beginning to dig into this side of our family history, heard that Norman broke horses as a young man out in Nebraska, near some famous cowboys ranch.Don't know when he showed up in Iowa.Now there were several brothers and sisters, Nellie for one, think she lived in California.Would have to visit with family to get a list of names.You may e-mail me at: [email protected]
