I am searching for any information on the father of my half-sisters. His name was W. Frank Williams and he went by "Frank". He was born 11 Jun 1882 in Ithaca, Thompkins Co, NY. His father was Horatio Williams and his mother was Mary Hazelton. Both parents are said to have been born in Ireland.
As a young man, Frank studied for the priesthood, but did not complete his studies. Nothing is known about him until 1923 when he married our mother, Ada Florence Rose on 10 Nov 1923. Ada lived around Milan, Sumner Co., Ks. Frank and Ada had two daughters. Mary Emily was born 1924, and Virginia Clare was born 1926, both in Milan, Ks. It is believed that Frank was an FBI agent or some sort of lawman in Kansas around this time. He died 11 Apr 1927 at Corbin, Sumner Co., Kansas and is buried in Milan Cemetery, Milan, Kansas.
"Frank" has been a solid brick wall in my research. I have not been able to find him in any census or other records. I would appreciate any information, leads or help that anyone can give me. Thanks.
Dorothy
