Merle Arlene Roberts-Maxwell

I have finally found one of Mina's daughters!! I found her name by an old newspaper clipping talking about one of Mina's daughters being a Mrs. Willard Maxwell. I looked his name up on Rootsweb and found him. But the person he married, Merle, wasn't actually on my first list of names of Mina's daughters. I had an old newspaper article about a party that Lionel and Mina attended and Merle was erroneously listed as Marie. But Merle's last name was Roberts and everything else falls into place. 2-10-06 Rootsweb.I7337
