Hi Bill,
I am referencing Carmella Joann Girimonti (B3(2).1243) She was my Grandmother
on my father's side. I'm going to give you some information that I have now, but I am waiting to hear back
from some family because Carmella had a few husbands, and many children...
Her first marriage was
to Roy Lee Ballard (I will attach their wedding picture to this e mail) I don't have the date of the wedding
unfortunately and I cannot find it online. Carmella had 2 children with Roy, her first son John Michael
Ballard (my Father) After her divorce, she had Katherine but gave her up for adoption. My family recently
found Kathi living in Tampa Florida and I will have more information on her soon. Carmella remarried 2 more
times I believe, once to a man with the last name Boni and then she married Joe Brunson.
I don't
have much information about my aunts and uncles because my father isn't very close to his family. For right
now, this is what I have:
Carmella married Roy and had 2 children
John Michael
Ballard
Katherine (not sure of her last name)
John Sr. was married to Karen in the 1970s, not
sure of her maiden name... they had one child together: Christopher Michael Ballard
John Sr. was remarried
on November 15th 1982 to Mary Rose Bradley and had two children, John Michael Ballard Jr (May 7th 1982) and
myself, Robin Lee Ballard (March 15th 1985)
John Michael Ballard Jr. has a Child, John Michael Ballard
III. who was born Oct. 18th 2007
and that is the end of my family tree, I will have more information on
the Brunson and Boni side soon... Unfortunately, I am in Spain until July so it will be hard for me to contact
them to get you the information. But I will keep in contact with you because I have been working on this for a
few years now and it is very important to me.
Thank you,
Robin Lee Ballard
