Roy -

Do you by any chance know if this was the family that started the Gallaudet
Aircraft Corporation with which Reuben Fleet was associated before he
founded the Consolidated Aircraft Corporation in Delaware?

I believe they had an engineering concern before going into aircraft design
and manufacturing in the very
early days, and continued with that after they gave up all associations with
the
aircraft industry post WW I.

When you are wounded and left, / On Afghanistan's plains, / And the women
come
out, / To cut up your remains, / Just roll on your rifle, / And blow out
your
brains, / And go to your Gawd, / Like a soldier. - Rudyard Kipling.
