I am searching for information on Earl Gehling.DOB 10/2/1888, Pennsylvania.He was a coal miner and electrician.He was Catholic.He married Mary (?) in 1914.He had at least two children with Mary, their names were Elmer Charles and Buddy Earl.They may have had more children, but don't know of them.
Elmer Charles was born 12/14/1914 and died 03/30/1943 of TB.He was in a sanitarium, possibly in PA.
Buddy Earl was married to Rose (?).
Earl and Mary were married for 16 years when Earl disappeared on April 8, 1930.Mary later found him in October, 1942 in Alabama thru the draft board when their son Elmer was dying of TB.
Their address at that time was 226 North Sumner Ave. Scranton, PA 18504.
Earl came to Fayette County, Alabama, changed his name to Earl Williams. He met and married my grandmother, Slina Poe.They had six children.
I don't know why it is so hard to find anything on him when I have this much.If anyone has any info on him please email me.Thanks.Vickie
