- 1/3/2012; Hi Ron: I should have sent you what I have on Richard P. Roberson. I also have him as the son of Alva T. Roberson and Carrie Patton Suthards. Richard was born 05 Oct 1914 and died 06 Jul 1996. He married my Janice Craig 15 Jan 1939 in English, Crawford, IN.
Janice was born 20 Apr 1917, no doubt in Leavenworth and died 11 May 1992, I assume in English. She was the daughter of John Aaron Craig, b. 30 Aug 1874 in Harrison Co., IN, d. 1962 and Dora Catherine Allen, b. 21 Aug 1889 in Leavenworth, d. 17 Apr 1918. Dora Catherine Allen was the daughter of my great grandparents William Bethel Allen and Dora Craig which made John Aaron Craig and Dora Catherine Allen 1st cousins once removed (that’s cutting a little close, isn’t it?) Janice was the youngest of 4 children and the only one to survive past infancy.
As far as I know, Janice and Richard Roberson had only one child – Paula Ann Roberson, b. 05 Dec 1950. In September we had a mini-reunion in Leavenworth of the descendents of William Bethel Allen. We were able to locate all of his living descendents except for Paula. As I mentioned, I was able to track her up to 1996 and then lost her. Not all the descendents were able to attend but the ones that did came from all over the country and one from Europe.
I had your ron@ address from some previous correspondence and the saw the publicron@ address in your Findagrave ptrofile, so I’m sending this to both. Hopefully one will get through. Thanks for your help. Jim Allen
