Agreed, working on that one as you were posting. :-)

Thomas J. Wren born 1891 was the brother of Francis (father of Frank) hence Thomas J. Wren was the uncle of Frank, if that makes any sense.

Thankyou for above. All relevant. I think Frank's father Francis born 1873 is son of John and Elizabeth so have the connection....I hope :-)

this is your frank parents francis and laura
