Hello!
We would be happy to see what we can do to help.
Where did they live in the US?
What were their childen's names?
Any detail you can think of may help us find some records.
Also, so we don't duplicate your research, does the
"Tally/Morrison/Thompson/McConnell Family Tree" on ancestry. com belong to you?
Thank you!
Valarie

If this is the correct record, you could order his SS Application ($27).
It should have his place of birth and parent's names.
