My name is Diane Renee Banner. My dad was Robert A. Banner who's dad was Roy Banner & Roy's wife was a Williams before she married Roy. My dad had 7 brothers & 3 sisters. Only one of them living now. Frank Banner. Dad was in WW11 and the Korean war. I have 2 brothers and 1 sister. I got this Post from a Robert Banner, who I am related to I'm sure. He says most us Banners if not all are related some how. I have a picture of over 100 years ago that was my dads. A lot of war pictures that were his, and a jacket. His flying books he learned from I suppose. He didn't talk much about his life before he married Mom. Only if u asked him. And he would tell you. He taught me to say what was on mind & take up for myself. And showed me how to take up for myself. I was born fighting mom said, came out elbow first and been fighting ever since. Intimidation was not in his vocabulary. Best dad you could ever have. I would like more info. on the Banner family history, and could help you with the parts I know about what I know. When I was growing up in Irving, Tx. (it was a small country town then)
The people around here called all my uncles & my dad the Banner brothers. A tough bunch. Most of whom were in the military and then married and had families, who had families, who had families & so on.I am 52 yrs.Mom is 80 and dad (my best friend, died in 1992 of cancer.
