Dave,
I don’t know how they came up with the name Ulric. Apparently it is an
English version of a German name. I don’t see much German blood in Arlie’s
lines. Perhaps it may have something to do with the fact that Arlie’s
father and father’s brothers were all captains of large sailing vessels and
sailed much of the world. Perhaps it was a name they picked up in their
travels.
Ulric “Bud” was my second cousin through is maternal grandmother Sarah
Ambrozine Allen. I don’t know how they chose her middle name, but it wasn’t
from sailing the world as the Allens were landlubbers. I am told my
grandfather went to sea one time when he was young, was very seasick and
never went back!
Here are more records.
