Message Board Post:
Seeking information on the family of Frank Howard Negley (1878-1947) and Mae E. Boynton
(1880-1968). Frank Howard is a 2 X great grandson of Alexander NEGLEY of Pittsburgh.
Frank Howard was born in Chicago and apparently moved to South Bend, IN where he had a
business in 1942. Frank and his wife may have had two children (according to Floyd
Rollin Negley) but I have been unable to find any trace of them in the census.
QUESTIONS: Is there a more specific date for when Frank Howard Negley died? Where is he
buried?
What sort of business was he engaged in?
What were the names of his wife's parents? I have been unable to locate them in the
U.S. census.
Did Frank and Mae have children as Floyd Rollin Negley asserts? IF so, what where their
names and when where they born?
This series of questions is part of a larger project to identify the descendants of
Alexander Negley of Pittsburgh.
Willing to share information.

Marriage Notes for Frank Negley and Mae Boynton:
Again, Floyd Negley is not sure if Frank and Mae had children, but assigns two to them
anyway. Checking the 1910--1930 censuses shows no children. If they had any children,
they must have been born between censuses OR after 1930.
