David, I think your grandad was my great uncle.My grandfather was his brother-Robert Leroy Kingbd Nov 1, 1887.I think the three boys had a series of different moms/stepmoms-from what I can remember from my grandad.We have often been curious about his roots.He said his birth certificate was lost when the town hall in Briton was razed by fire.When he joined the Canadian calvary to fight in Europe in WW1, he swore he was from Texas, but now we think that was in case he was asked if he had native blood, he could say he had Mexican ancestors.His mother's name is not listed, but his father's was. My aunt Jean did some research at the Salt Lake City mormon geneology centre, but she has passed and I don't have access to those records right now.I am hoping to see them in the future.
Anyway, pleased to touch base with a family member.My email at home is

Hope to hear from you!
