The surname Bone, in Francis' line, is fast disappearing. Currently there are only 6 individuals of 'bone-blood' carrying the name: Doyle Martin Bone, son of Arthur Augustus Bone (deceased); Gary Eugene Bone s/o Doyle, Clinton Martin Bone s/o Gary, Nicole Bone d/o Gary; Richard "Dick" Wayne Bone, son of Wayne Bone (deceased), s/o Arthur Augustus Bone; Brett Bone s/o Richard. Evidently our line suffers from the 'Cornish Curse' (decrease in male births).
