Hi there!
From Canada - Greetings. My father's 1st cousin was Clifford Cretney. I believe he was born in Canada and would have been around 77 or 78 years old - I think he was probably born some where in the early 1920's.
He has a daugher whose name was Carol Cretney who now lives in California some where. Sorry - that's all the info I have. His mother and my dad's father were sister and brother from the Lambertons. Their mother's maiden name was Amelia Christian.
Good luck.
