Lore geneology

[katie123]

i know another question already and i am so sorry but this as been bothering me for the past couple weeks...


okay, my grandmother's maiden name was lore. she says that it was originally lo re (2 words intended) anybody know what that means?

her father was Thomas lore born sep 25, 1915 - dec 24 1984
he had 2 sisters, one who i know nothing about was called mildred and may have married a demaio and one who was called frances and i am told married a capone. any info on them please.

everybody above was from chicago

Their father was also called thomas lore and grandma said that he *gasp* separated from his wife who's name i do not know.
if you can find her name and where they both came from.

thanks and again sorry for asking so many questions!! i'll go to the irish forum to be a bother now.....
