Dad mentioned that this would probably be Ernestine or Ernestina then. She would have been the daughter of the owner of that show. Fact checker? --- Brad Timberlake

Was told by a cousin that Ernistina came from a wealthy family and came from Bogata, South America.

I was once told that Arthur Lake the movie actor who played "Dagwood Bumstead" was actually an Indiana Silverlake with an early circus background.

For the benefit of you First of Junes out there.
Myrna and I trouped together on Big Bob Stevens' Robbins Bros. Circus where she was a circus artist and I a lowly candy butcher.
