Any relationship to Earle Preston McKellar, NA#861 (1897-1964)??

No relation that I know of, although I'm sure if you go back far
enough.......

#711 was my mother's father, Charles Robert Rhodes. (I'm Robert Rhodes
McKellar, my oldest son Charles Robert McKellar - lots of recycling.)

I looked up Earl McKellar in my book of the first 2000 NA's. He had a long
career, with a few years of retirement in the middle.

#711 only served a few years for WWI, and was discharged as an Ensign.
That's probably why he was so happy when he saw my lofty Lt.jg stripes!
