Yes Bill, my grandfather was Jesse Gilbert Quail and as I recall from what he told me, as a boy he lived in rockford Illinois.His Father was an Artist, sign painter to be exact. Rented a small shack which used to be a bycicle club headquarters for his workshop. When they moved to Detroit he opened the Quail Sign Co that was on Woodward avenue,just a few buildings off of the detroit river. I have an original Card from that business. My uncle, David who lived in California was also an artist.So how are you related to my grandfather?
I have some genealogy info put away that my Grandfather left to me before he died and I will go through it this week and see what I can figuire out. Pretty exciting.
I have my Great Great Grandfathers Black powder rifle hanging on our fireplace and also acurved hunting Horn made from some animals horn, that is from my great Great grandmother, she brought it from Ireland,has the initials "S.J." for Sarah Johnston on a brass placque.
This is all very exciting because I just typed in My name,John Quail on a search engine the other day just to see what I would get and ended up on the genealogy .com message board..wow
