I am trying to locate the family information for Ralph Wilson Hawthorne. I know the following information about him: he was born 12/29/1883 in Pittsburg PA. He married Flora Margarita (sp?) Farmer. He had a brother named Charles W. Hawthorne b. 1875 who married Minnie Crissman. I also know that both Ralph and Charles worked for the steel mills in PA during the early 1900's with Charles going to Russia to help develop the steel mill there. Ralph and Flora moved to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada where he worked for the Blooming & Billet Steel Mill until 2/17/1917 when he moved back to America and his son Robert Wilson Hawthorne was born a few months later 8/3/1917 in Buffalo New York.
I am really looking for information regarding his parents. Ralph's wife as well. I have been unable as of yet to find anything regarding them.

If you can help me please email me at
