Clifford's second marriage was to Marguerite McDermott in the 1930's in Norfolk Virginia (she is my Grandmother).Martha J. Ragan eventually moved to Portsmouth Virginia and then to Norfolk Virginia where she is now buried at St. Mary's Cemetery. We have knowledge that Martha and William Mins Ragan along with their children lived for quite a while in
Americus Georgia. I am trying to find out information about them - Martha's maiden name and if William Mins had any brothers or sisters and what either of their parents' names are and where they came from etc.
