Paul Simon Jan 25, 1998 I am interested in information on Frank "Franz" Gieske who apparently came to the USA from Neuenkirchen in North Germany .

Canfield-Miller died at the home of her sister and brother-in-law Lucy and Edward Moreland on 30 Dec 1907. I would like to know if a death certificate is available and how to obtain one. Bena was buried in Aurora, Indiana. I am also searching for information on Mary Bena Moreland, daugther of Lucy and Edward. Their son Chester had a daughter Jane who married Floyd Ward and had three children. I am searching for the names of those three children. I would appreciate any suggestions regarding where to search for this information. Bonnie Snow Mar 14, 1998 I am searching for information about George Gaunt and his wife Emma Robinson Gaunt. George was born abt 1862 in Ohio. They appear in the 1920 census for Kenton, County. George was abt. 58 and Emma abt. 60 years old at the time. Their children were Alice Gaunt Sizelove, Ella Gaunt Showalter, Minnie Gaunt Fischer, William Gaunt (married Myrtle Jane Childress) and George Gaunt. I belive most of their children were born in the Cincinnati area of Ohio but were raised and married in Kenton, County. Information on any of these people will be greatly appreciated. I want to thank Debbie and Carol for responding, I wouldn't have the information I have without them. Thank you, Bonnie Gaunt Snow bonsnow@aol.com |
