Jess E. Reamey/Ramey
Searching for the family of Jess Elmer Ramey. It is believed that he was raised in the Detroit, Michigan area and left from home at about the age of 13 or 14. He died 1949 or 1950 in Oklahoma.
At some point he changed his name to REAMEY, and that is the name that appears on his children's birth certificates. The family believes that the original spelling was "RAMEY", however, they aren't certain. His son Elvin got in touch with a Doctor in Detroit, Michigan who said that he did have an older brother by the name of Jess who ran away when he was about 13 or 14, however, he didn't remember much about Jess, since he was younger than Jess. Elvin no longer remembers the name of the Doctor, so I have no lead there.
