Hello!My name is Anne and my husband is David Hayes SILER. David's father was Arlie B. SILER, son of Joe M. & Pearl SILER.I would love to know about the Silers in Pruden and Jellico!I have so much info on the other branches of the family, but I have almost nothing on my husband's father and his siblings.I'm also at a standstill with Pearl (BAKER) SILER.My husband's father and mother were divorced in the mid 70's and then Arlie died in December of 1988 (David was only 18).As a result, my husband doesn't know too much about the Pruden Silers and his mom remembers a few names but no dates.I've just started working on the family tree following the birth last year of our son, Andrew Marshal.David chose "Marshal" for the middle name because he was told that it was Joe M.s middle name.He remembers his grandpa as smelling pleasantly of pipe smoke and always having a silver dollar for him (David was only 5 when Joe M. passed away).
We live just outside of Dayton, Ohio.Also in the area is Jerry SILER (minister), one of David's first cousins.David thinks that his Arlie's sister, MaryB may be in Texas and working on the family tree, too.I'm also trying to contact Michelle SILER-HELMS but the email address listed for her here is no longer valid.
Sincerely,
Anne Willis Siler
