      Description: Hello, first off, "Code Kinney" should be "Cody Kinney" and he is my great grandfather (His daughter is Mae Kinney, and her youngest daughter was my mother, Marilyn Benzine). If you are interested in adding to this line on your site, I know this information and am willing to share.

      Your site has tons of information that I am enjoying reading through and learning about some of my own family history. So glad I have come across it, and I hope that I can be of help to adding to it.

      Jack was adopted out. He was adopted by the Gregg family. Raymond was
      adopted out. He was adopted by the Smith family. The family story is,
      that all the children were lined up, and the families chose which
      children they decided to adopt.
