Nichole Wright:
Daughter of Louis (Luigi) Branno and Teresa Conado.
Was married to husband Joseph Marino and had multiple children, though where she married Joseph to this day is still not known (most probably in the USA), nor is where they met or how.
There does seem to be a fairly large age gap between Joseph and Laura, however, Laura seems to be slightly older than her own official records state as at the time she was having her first child she would have been 14.
Joseph was a traveling musician (harpist) and would play for the people on riverboats going up and down the Ohio River.
As a result, he was away from home a good portion of the time leaving Laura alone.
It is unclear if Laura had an affair with the next door neighbor on Water St. named John Williams, or if she and Joseph had technically already gone separate ways but kept appearances up. Divorce in this period of time was extremely uncommon.
Either way, Laura bore John Williams (Guglielmo) a son named Michael Angelo Antonio Guglielmo (who frequently went in record sets by Tony or Anthony Marino).
She helped mind 2 different boarding houses run by the Branno family, one at 116 W. Front St, and then at 308 West Water St. where she presumably cooked and cleaned for the 7 additional occupants as well as for her own children. She lived on Water St. until she passed away.
The area in which they lived in Cincinnati was incredibly prone to flooding, and did so frequently (sometimes historically so).
Life certainly wasn't easy, and without her I wouldn't be here.



Dana Howard:
Billy was born June 19 1974 to Vernon Holt and Theresa Higby Holt. He was born and raised in Crystal Lake, Illinois. He attended and graduated from Spartan School of Aeronautics in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He had one brother Bobby Holt. He married Dana Howard in December 2004 and had one son Jaxom, who he deeply loved. Billy had a love for drag racing. He spent hours working on his fox body mustang and racing it on the weekends. He also loved riding his Harley in the mountains. He spent his weekends spending time with family and friends at the drag strip. He loved beyond measure and was a wonderful husband and Father.

Kelley Farr:
Daughter - John H Farr is my father. I have so many memories but I will talk about the family reunion house the farr family built when I was young The house was on a lake with a dock, not sure of the exact town or lake but my memory remembers Buda Tx west of Austin. I know Dad had Family that lived in George Town east of Austin. I was so young I slept in the back of Dads truck, that old white truck he kept forever, at the “lake house” I don’t remember ever sleeping in a bed, however I eventually earned a spot inside on the floor. I remember Uncle David, he was the grill master and Aunt Bea and Grandma Farr, eating huge meals, especially breakfast. If you know what I’m talking about it is a good memory and there are not many of those from childhood. This was probably the early 70’s maybe even late 60’s.
