thanks for the information. We appreciate any thing that pertains to the family,Its a shame we didn't find out more from my grandmother,but by the time we realized we didn't know enough about the family ,they were all gone.my grandmother was nonce's daughter Loretta,she married Claude Bateman. he was the last Bateman born on Bateman's Island.Were looking forward to going through the archives for the Francioni and the Batemans. thanks again.
