I am looking for information on my Grandfather Paul Crocker's family. He
and his mother and sisters moved to Hennipen after the death of his Father
Frank R. Crocker (1857-1907). His mother was Mary (Minnie) Arnold Crocker
(1858-1915). Elder sister Jess (1888-1958) married Ralph D. Wilcox of Minneapolis,
MN in about 1915. They had one son William C. Wilcox (1916-1988). He was
born in MN and died there. Jess and Ralph also lived all there lives in MN.
Paul's younger sister Mary (1899-1982) lived in MN for the rest of her life.
She married James Thompson (div), and second husbands last name was Sweeney.
Mary had one son also, James Thompson Jr. who died about 10 years ago in
MN. My Grandfather died in 1982 and I was pretty young and not into
genealogy as I am now. I am hoping to find descendants of Jess and Ralph. Since
she was the eldest her family may have photographs and information on the
family. I know so very little about them. And while I am at it one of my Great
Grandfather's sisters went to live in MN. He name was Penelope Crocker b.
1852 in Galena Illinois. She married Edward Somerby Stebbins in about 1885.
They lived in Minnesota and I gather Edward was a well respected architect.
Maybe they have descendants out there too. I would really appreciate any help
on this. Thanks so much.
