Notes
- From PC Ringgold: The story goes that when my grandfather was about 17 he left his home in Stephensville, MD (on Kent Island) because he did not get along with stepmother Nellie Greenwood. His mother was Annabelle Harrison. He was self-educated by reading the entire text of the Harvard Classics, he was very good at Physics. He eventually went to work for RCA. He was a Gen. Superintendent for RCA, he was instrumental in developing radio for submarines. Tragically during the Depression he died suddenly of Pneumonia.
