Robert Wallace - My Brick Wall
I'm searching for a Robert Wallace, white male, who would have been in the Louisville KY area during the period of April to July 1920. According to the only document I have that names him, he would have been 29 years old in early 1921; his occupation would have been as a laborer, and he was born in Kentucky. None of this has yet been substantiated by any other record.
I know from DNA evidence that he is not the Robert J. Wallace, son of James Fitz Wallace, who was born in Louisville on 11 Apr 1882. Nor is he the Robert Wallace, son of Dr. Robert Wallace, a native of Scotland who moved to Louisville before 1900.
The only other Robert Wallace that I have located who might fit the bill is a Robert J. Wallace who was stationed at Camp Taylor in Louisville in 1920. However, his origin (Ireland) and occupation (1st Lieutenant in US Army) tend to eliminate him from consideration.
I have examined census records and Louisville city directories for other potential candidates without results. I have also looked in the Kentucky death index for clues. I have considered other given names such as Bob, and other surname spellings such as Wallis, but still have not find the Robert Wallace I seek.
At this point my only hope in locating this Robert Wallace is either with a chance DNA match, or by someone who has a clue tucked away somewhere in their research.
Please help me find him.
