First Generation  

1. Margaret Elizabeth Drugan,^{1 2 3 4 5 6 7} daughter of David Glenn Drugan, Sr. ^{2 3 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15} and Lena Louise Hanson,^{2 3 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24} was born on 12 June 1916 in Winona, Winona, Minnesota, United States,^{1 2 3 4 5 6 7} died on 26 September 1975 in Quincy, Adams, Illinois, United States,^{6 25} at age 59, and was buried on 29 September 1975 in Greenmount Cemetery, Quincy, Adams, Illinois, United States.^{7 26} The cause of her death was Complications resulting from amyloidosis.²⁶

Margaret married Franklin Lee Lightfoot, Sr., son of Lee Lendon Lightfoot ^{27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38} and Mary Elizabeth McLaughlin,.^{26 32 33 34 35 36 39 40} Franklin was born on 9 September 1907 in Eau Claire, Eau Claire, Wisconsin, United States,^{26 33 41 42 43 44} died on 12 February 1991 in Roseville, Placer, California, United States,^{42 45 46} at age 83, and was cremated on 15 February 1991 in Roseville, Placer, California, United States.⁴⁴ The cause of his death was Asthmatic Bronchitis.⁴⁴ Another name for Franklin was Franklyn Lee Lightfoot Sr..²⁶

Children from this marriage were:

          i.  Living. Living married Living

         ii.  Living. Living married Living

        iii.  Brian Lynn Lightfoot was born on 4 May 1947 in Winona, Winona, Minnesota, United States^{5 47} and was baptized on 29 March 1961 in Springfield, Sangamon, Illinois, United States. Brian married Carol Cecelia Renton, daughter of Roger Floyd Renton ^{48 49 50 51 52} and Mary Doris Holmes,.^{48 53 54 55 56} Carol was born on 12 March 1947 in Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States.²⁶

Noted events in his life were:

1. Physical Description: tall with brown eyes, brown hair.

2. Residence: May 1947, Winona, Winona, Minnesota, United States. ²⁶

3. Birth Image: 4 May 1947, Winona, Winona, Minnesota, United States. ⁴⁷

4. Residence: September 1948 to February 1949, Portland, Multnomah, Oregon, United States. ²⁶ This is the only time that we lived in the NW part of the US as most of our other residences were in the mid-west or eastern part. I've yet to learn of any particular reason for moving the family here as there were no relatives in the area. I think Frank Sr may have been in the area during his years in the navy and liked the area so much that we ended up moving there for a few years until he decided we may as well move to where he was stationed with the navy in California.

This house was a large two story house with white painted clap-board siding, typical of that era. We have some photographs showing us playing on a large wooden porch but I am not sure if this would have been our house or perhaps a neighbor. The photos also show a yard with a white painted wood picket fence.
.

5. Residence: 4833 McNab Avenue, March 1949 to May 1952, Lakewood, Los Angeles, California, United States. ²⁶ This area is now within the city of Lakewood but apparently in 1952 was called Long Beach as evidence by a letter from the navy to Margaret Lightfoot giving a summary of Frank Lightfoot's naval record. I think we later moved a mile or so north into the Bellflower Garden Apartments in the city of Bellflower. It was a neighborhood that was predominately two story apartment buildings.

.

7. Residence: December 1952 to July 1953, Moline, Rock Island, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ I have no recollection of what this house looked like but Lee says it was right across the street from the Moline Police Department.

I remember practically nothing about living in Moline and have gotten little additional information from Lee and Frankie. I believe this is where we first got Roxie, the cocker spaniel puppy. Of course, when we left Moline bound for our next destination, Dad stopped somewhere along the highway, opened the car door and got rid of the dog. I wonder how many different dogs we owned as kids growing up? I think Roxie was the last dog we ever had.
.

8. Residence: 1907 Kathleen Street, November 1953 to June 1954, Tampa, Hillsborough, Florida, United States. ²⁶ The was another rental house that, if I remember correctly, came furnished, something was not all too uncommon back then. And good reason it was furnished: we had little more than several suitcases of clothes to move it. The house was not too far from the Hillsborough River and us three boys found plenty of places for play including some back water area where we would throw a bottle into the water with a string tied to it. Inside the bottle were several pieces of bread and within minutes we would pull the bottle out full of "guppies". There was also some sort of man-hole which we would climb down into and use fish nets to catch tropical fish that were discharged from a nearby aquarium or fish factory. It wasn't too important to us that the vast majority of these tropical fish were diseased and would die within days.

Mom also noted on one of the photographs that apparently we couldn't pay the rent on the house after a few months and had to move into a small apartment, a place of which I have virtually no memory.
.

9. Residence: 2907 Woodrow Street, July 1954 to December 1954, Tampa, Hillsborough, Florida, United States. ²⁶ I have no information about this place other than Mom described it as a small apartment. It was about 10 blocks away from the previous location on Kathleen Street and across the Hillsborough River.
.

10. Residence: 2737 Saint Paul Street, January 1955 to June 1955, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Maryland, United States. ²⁶ All I can remember about Saint Paul Street is that it was one of the typical row houses in Baltimore with the marble steps out front.

This was a rental apartment that I believe was on the 3rd floor in a somewhat run-down area of Baltimore...working poor would be appropriate. As Mom wrote on one of the photos, "We were really in bad shape at this time!" I can remember horse drawn carts coming up the alley with the Negro driver yelling out "Rags, Rags". This is also the place where thieves came up the wooden back stairs to steal Frankie's Raleigh bicycle that was chained down tight.
.

11. Residence: July 1955 to October 1956, Grand Isle, Grand Isle, Vermont, United States. ²⁶ Why we ever moved to this remote location in 1955 is still baffling to this day. There is some suspicion that Frank owed a bunch of money to some people back in Baltimore and that he needed to "get out of town". Whatever the reason, we ending up moving right back to Baltimore about 2 years later.
.

12. Residence: 3020 Reisterstown Road, 1956, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Maryland, United States. ²⁶ This was an older two story house on the corner of Wichita Avenue. There are several photos showing Mom and Brian near the front porch of the house.

We lived in the upstairs apartment on the right side (near the side street). Below us lived some relatives of Curly Stein of the 3 Stooges fame.
.

13. Residence: 3002 Reisterstown Road, Apt A3N, March 1957 to October 1958, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Maryland, United States. ²⁶ This was a large brick, apartment building. We lived in Apartment A3N which meant the "A" wing, 3rd floor. And as I recall, there was no elevator back then.

Following one drunken brawl, we were given a "Notice to Quit" which I remember seeing on our apartment door. It was our eviction notice and the beginning of when our parents began to split up.
.

14. Residence: 2302 Ocala Avenue, 1958, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Maryland, United States. ²⁶ This was the 3rd apartment that we lived in along the Reisterstown Road area after moving here following the eviction when Frankie stabbed Dad in the arm after his big drunken brawl in the apartment and trailed blood down the hallway and out the front entrance. I'm not sure of the exact address where Mom moved us 3 boys but I know it was only a block or two away as I remember using a toy wagon to move what few possessions we owned down the back alley. There appears to be some redevelopment of the brick apartment buildings along Reisterstown Road where we used to live so it is possible that we moved into one of these buildings located on the next side street, Ocala Avenue.
.

15. Residence: 1959, Davenport, Scott, Iowa, United States. ²⁶ Following the parental split that occurred in Baltimore, our parents tried one last time to get together. This time we moved to Davenport, Iowa where Frank's parents still lived. It was the 2nd floor of a large house. I think Mom had no choice but to try and reconcile because she had no assets and no job experience.

I can remember we had a screen room or porch area and had purchased this red hammock which we all found somewhat amusing to try to sleep on.

It was also on this screen room where I remember mixing up a bunch of "Hy-Lite", the battery additive that Dad was selling to make extra money. Hy-Lite was nothing more than epson salt crystals with blue food coloring. We used to go to the grocery store and buy half a dozen packages of food coloring. We'd use the blue and throw out the rest.

I can also remember riding my bicycle out to Grandma and Grandpa's house just to stop by and visit them. I don't remember ever being greeted with warm hugs but it was more like "we're busy, what did you want". I was either too young or too naive at the time to realize that I was getting a cold shoulder.

I still remember Frank coming home frequently dead drunk at which time he would pass out on the red hammock. Mom had very little money and we were all living on a "starvation diet" while Dad drank untold sums away. I had to low-crawl out to where he peeled off his clothes prior to passing out on the red hammock and attempt to retrieve some money from his billfold.
.

16. Residence: 427 West Jefferson Street, October 1960 to August 1961, Springfield, Sangamon, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ This is where Mom moved Lee and Brian to following her final breakup with Dad after another drunken brawl in the Lincoln Hotel in Chicago where he insisted she come to for another attempt at a reconciliation. He apparently forgot to mention that he had Ann Scharf stashed away in another room in the hotel.

This apartment near downtown Springfield was nothing more than a 3rd floor attic loft with very cheap rent as it was all that Mom could afford on her salary from Myers Brothers Department store in Springfield as a hosiery saleslady. We took many pictures from the small rooftop balcony with the Illinois state capitol buildings in the background. This entire residential neighborhood has since been demolished for redevelopment as state office buildings.
.

17. Residence: 105 Forest Avenue, September 1961 to May 1962, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ Mom's new job as an Unemployment Insurance Claims Examiner required her to relocate from Springfield to Rockford so Lee assisted in moving us by getting a U-Haul trailer attached to his 1957 Plymouth Fury and drove us to our new location. At this time, Frankie had started school at Winona State College.

This was a 2nd floor studio apartment with only one real bedroom to speak of which is all Mom could afford at the time. The photo shows Mom standing with William Mitchell, a fellow Unemployment Claims Examiner whom she met. They are standing in front of the garage which serviced the 1st floor apartment. Our entrance to the small 2nd floor was the little door to the left of the garage door.
.

18. Residence: 1532 West State Street, June 1962 to November 1963, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ Within one year of moving to Rockford, Mom had enough money to move out of the small studio apartment into a more spacious but still modest apartment. This was another 2nd floor apartment with the only entrance via a wooden stairs on the side of the building (where were the fire codes back then?). It was located over the Honey Boy Pizza Bakery which apparently made the dough for many of the local restaurants but was no longer in operation. Mom had already met William Mitchell who also worked at the Unemployment Compensation office and who was recently divorced. Within a few months they were married in Rockford and continued to live here for at least another year.

The entire block of West State Street has since been torn down for urban redevelopment projects.
.

19. Residence: 2115 West State Street, December 1963 to May 1964, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ Strangely, we have no photographs that show this house or surroundings. There is some old 8mm film taken from inside the house but no other images exist. Once again, this was a 2nd floor apartment where Mom and Bill lived. Brian lived there part of the time but he also left for about 6 months to go live with his Dad in Detroit. Lee also lived here but he was moving out to California to be with Bob Westphal around this time and for a number of months he also had his own sleeping room elsewhere in Rockford on Benderwirt Avenue. Across the side street, Webster Avenue, was "Red's Gas", an old gas station where both Lee and Brian hung out to do some small work on his car.

For some reason, I seem to recall living even further out on West State Street, perhaps into the 3500 block or more but perhaps I am confusing it with this building at 2115. I have no other pictures to prove another residence on West State Street.
.

20. Residence: 718 North Court Street, June 1964 to April 1966, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ Mom had been laid off from her job with the state as an Unemployment Claims Examiner but William continued to work there and had been promoted to a Deputy Claims Examiner. By this time, Lee was living in California and working with Bob Westphal. Brian was mostly living in his own sleeping room on Benderwirt Avenue, the same one that Lee used to rent.

This was a brand new two story apartment building with about 30 units in which Mom and Bill were hired as "resident managers". The rent was free and all they had to do was simple maintenance such as changing light bulbs in the hallways, vacuuming the hallways, and serving as a collection point for the rent checks from all the other tenants. Of course included with that comes the tasks of dealing with tenants complaining about noise, lost their keys, can't pay the rent, showing vacant apartments, etc. Mom also liked the idea that the owner put in a phone in her name but he paid the bill just so he could officially maintain a phone contact with her as the building manager.
.

21. Education: Auburn High School Graduation, 10 June 1965, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States.

22. Residence: 1421 Benderwirt Avenue, May 1966 to March 1967, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ This was a single sleeping room in an older two story house rented for $1 per day. It was located just about one block off of Auburn Street and Rockton Avenue. Previously, Lee had stayed there for about a year prior to his induction into the Army.
.

23. Occupation: Engineering aide, 1967-1970, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ He worked for Sundstrand Aviation Company in the Test Equipment department. The work involved special enclosures for environmental testing of constant speed drives for electrical generators used on commercial and military aircraft.

24. Residence: 1333 Evelyn Court, April 1967, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ I'm not sure why Mom and Bill ever left their position as the resident managers of the new apartment on North Court Street. Perhaps they get tired of shoveling snow off the sidewalks and the constant interruptions from the tenants so they moved to their own 2nd floor apartment located on the corner of Evelyn Court and Auburn Street sometime around May 1966. By this time Bill was the Assistant Manager of the Freeport office of unemployment and he was making the 30 mile drive every day. They actually stayed at this place longer than any other place they lived at, a period of about three and one-half years.

They lived on the 2nd floor on the side of the building facing Auburn Street (with all the traffic noise).
.

25. Illinois Army National Guard: 1968, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. Enlisted Company A, 129th Inf. Bn.

26. Military: Illinois Army National Guard, 1968-1975, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶ Brian joined the Illinois Army National Guard in Rockford, Illinois originally assigned to Company A, 129th Infantry. In 1968 he served his Basic Combat Training and Advanced Individual Training both at Fort Dix, New Jersey.

When he returned to his reserve status with Company A, he signed up for the Illinois Officer Candidate School and graduated in July 1970 earning the Distinguished Candidate award. He started as a Second Lieutenant for the 2nd & 3rd Rifle Platoon Detachment, Company B, 129th Infantry in Rockford, Illinois. By the summer of 1972, he was promoted to First Lieutenant and was serving as the Detachment Commander and Company Executive Officer.

In 1974, he attended the Basic Infantry Officer Training Course at Fort Benning, Georgia. In 1975, he attended the Northern Warfare Training Institute at Fort Greeley, Alaska.

.

27. Illinois Army National Guard: Officer Candidate School, June 1969-July 1970, Springfield, Sangamon, Illinois, United States. In lieu of one weekend each month with the regular unit and two summer camps each two weeks long, I was temporarily assigned to the Illinois Officer Candidate School (OCS). Instead of driving from Rockford to Springfield, I drove to the Illinois Air National Guard installation at O'Hare Airport near Chicago and flew down to Springfield and back with about 10 other candidates from around the region on one of their training flights for this purpose. While attending OCS, I received a pay grade of E-5 instead of the E-3 Private First Class.

Upon completion of OCS, I was awarded the "Outstanding Candidate" trophy. I was assigned to the 2nd and 3rd Rifle Platoons Detachment of Company B which met at the same armory as my original Company A enlistment. Because I was the only officer assigned to the Detachment, I was noted as the Detachment Commander which gave me authorizations similar to those of a Company Commander even though I was just a Second Lieutenant. I was also named as the Executive Officer to the main company headquarters in Freeport, Illinois which was about 30 miles away.
.

28. Occupation: Glazier at Cardinal Glass Company, 1970-1972, Rockford, Winnebago, Illinois, United States. ²⁶

29. Occupation: Stained glass window salesman at Cathedral Glass Company, 1972-1975, Evansville, Vanderburgh, Indiana, United States. ²⁶

30. Occupation: Machine tool repair parts salesman at Sundstrand Machine Tool Company, September 1975 to March 1977, Belvidere, Boone, Illinois, United States. ²⁶

31. Occupation: Glazier, 1977 to 1988, Santa Clara, California, United States. ²⁶

32. Occupation: Glazier at Stanislaus Glass Company, December 1988 to May 1999, Modesto, Stanislaus, California, United States. ²⁶

33. Retirement: 1 June 1999, Ceres, Stanislaus, California, United States. ²⁶

Margaret next married William Eugene Mitchell, son of Richard Mitchell and Bessie M. Parker. William was born on 19 September 1915 in Sandusky, Alexander, Illinois, United States,⁵⁷ died on 7 July 1994 in Quincy, Adams, Illinois, United States,⁵⁷ at age 78, and was buried after 7 July 1994 in Greenmount Cemetery, Quincy, Adams, Illinois, United States.²⁶ The cause of his death was Failing eyesight, High Blood Pressure, Heart disease.²⁶ They had no children. ²⁶
