Query Text: |
I'm posting this information, looking for the sibling of my father. My dad's father(My grandfather) HUGH EVERSON MCGINNIS born on a farm in Phelps County Missouri on July 1, 1892 to his parents William and Ellen Margaret (Bassett) McGinnis, Died May 25th.1955 And is buried in the Steelville Cemetery in Crawford County MO. , he lived in St. Louis City, Phelps and Crawford Counties in MO. Hugh had a child out of wedlock when my father was young. My dad said the child was born around the late 1940's to early 1950's. My dad thinks the mother was from Southern Missouri, but not certain, he doesn't know her name, he doesn't know the sex of the child. My grandmother was NELLIE(HALBERT) MCGINNIS{no relation to the child}. My father doesn't know anything about the child or mother. I also found out Hugh McGinnis regularly visited "Johnnie's bar" in St. James missouri in the 1940's and 50's in town. It's possible he met the mother of the child at this bar. The bar is still in operation to this day, with the same name and location. Hugh was a tall, thin, well dressed man and had a receding hair line later in life. Hugh retired from the railroad as an engineer. He died in a Downtown St. Louis Hotel in 1955. My dad said he would "love" to find his sibling!!
