My name is Hal Mettes & my wifes name is Caroline Jones Mettes.
My Fathers Mothers Father was named William Card, had a ranch outside Billings, Montana
and a daughter, Agnes, I think by his second wife, who married my grandfather James
Mettes. We had heard that the name several generations was from Ireland.
My wifes Fathers Mothers Fathers name was Card, also came from Ireland. We think a
William Card had the Army contract for iron clading vessels in St Louis. William dies and
his wife honored the Army contract.
We would like to see if there is a connection.
If anyone has any information on these people, we would appreciate hearing about it.
Thank you & Best Regards,
Hal Mettes
