(James) Thomas RYAN 27 Jan 1887 - 15 Nov 1949
I am looking for ancestors and descendants of (James) Thomas RYAN, born 27 January 1887 in Ashland, Boyd County, Kentucky - died 15 November 1949 Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri.
Death record is for Thomas RYAN, son of Emdee and Laura (mnu) RYAN...draft registration was filled out in Georgia in 1917 as James RYAN, same dob and parents listed.
Had at least one son, William "Bill" RYAN, probably born in Kansas City abt 1928.I think he died in 1997.Found Thomas listed as James in 1920 Missouri census and another researcher sent me his 1930 census listing.He married Alta (mnu but might have been BROWN) who was born in Kansas.Some records indicate Emdee (was his name really Emdee or were his initials M.D. and someone misunderstood whoever supplied the information and spelled the letters into a name?) was born in Canada.One census indicates he was born in New York, another Kansas...
This family was apparently gone from Boyd County, Kentucky when the 1900 census was enumerated but where did they go?I can find no census records for an Emdee RYAN in any state listed so I really need some help here.
Please direct replies to me personally at my e-mail address as well as replying to the forum to insure I receive the replies in a timely manner.
Thanks
