Ruth Parker was also married to John F. Silas. They had two children. I am their daughter. The second child is buried in the Pons Cemetery. Her name was Rachel Christine Silas. I have a copy of her birth certificate and the spelling of her middle name should be Christine not Christeen. Rachel Christine was the infant daughter of John and Ruth Ponds Parker Silas. |
