<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=000303014-28042010>Most of you have
heard of my Howard dilemma: My husband's grandfather Charles Howard was a
forger. I have 4 first names and 4 last names for him. Charles
Howard and Edward Barrett were the most often used. He was born about 1885
in Kentucky. The 1930 census says his first marriage was when he was
26, which would be about 1910. I am looking for a possible wife for
him in Walla Walla. Edward Barrett was discharged from Oregon Penitentiary
in August of 1910. Charles Howard was convicted of burglary in Walla Walla
on 4/7/1911, giving him 8 months out of prison. I have a letter from a
California sheriff asking WA officials if the finger prints are the same.
They concluded they were.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
