My paternal ggf was Benjamin Fern, b1827 in Ireland. My gf was the last child (I knew of) of Benjamin and Ann Elizabeth Kline, b1831, in VA. Bertie W. (also seen as Bert W., Burt H.) Fern, b1878, in Dubuque. He married a Josephine Murtinick (later spelled Martinick or Martinek, also recorded as Rose M. ) from WI in 1898. My father was Roy E. Fern, 1st child of Burt and Josephine, also born in Dubuque, Jan 26, 1899. My dad's family later moved to OK. Roy had 8 brothers and sisters, Marietta, Harold, Marie, Keith, Kenneth, Myrtle, Bert, and Anabel. My father moved to CA and married Mazie Elizabeth Handy in 1926. He lived in CA until he died in 1967. I'd be interested in contacting relatives and sharing information.
