Douglas , not sure about George Washington Purdy , but I have run across alot of Purdy's from the 1800's that all were named after presidents.And it seems that most were from the Virginia , carolina's area.
but you mentioned that your father is Walter Purdy???
By any chance did your father have a brother named Edward???
The dates of birth for Walter and Edward(my father) are close enough that they could have been brothers.
I have been searching for my dad's brother Walter and two sisters (Barbara and Harriet) for quite some time now without any luck. The only info I had on my fathers siblings was from my fathers obit. If there is a chance that this is the same Walter.....please email me so i can , get some info to help in my family tree please.
I am having a hard time due to never knowing my father.(my parents divorced when I was 9 months old)
thank you for any info you can provide
