Merland
Martin Miller - aka "Bud"
This is my biological father. I know only that he is deceased, I do not know the date of death or the date
of his birth. I believe that he was living in the area of Liberty, Ohio at the time of his death.
I have a picture of his
Mother and his maternal Grandmother. There is nothing written on the backs of
them, therefore I do not know their names. What information I have on him is
that he had at least two sisters, possibly three but no brothers. I know
the names of two of his sisters Margie and Helen; I can find no information on a third sister.
Margie married a man named
Lloyd, I either never knew or can’t remember his last name. His name may
have also been Floyd. I believe they had three daughters, but I do not recall their names.
Helen married a man named
Paul Rentz. There is a daughter Jenny and a son but I do not remember his name. I met with Jenny and her husband while I was in Germany. I was stationed on Gibbs Kaserne in Frankfurt at the time.
UPDATE:
While discussing the difficulty I have been having in locating any information about my biological father with my Aunt Sue
and Aunt MaryEllen, I was told that they had seen him sign his name in the past and that he actually spelled it "Merlin".
The spelling that I have been going by is the spelling obtained my looking at my birth certificate.
