OK MOM!!
This would have been nice to know you had LOL :)
Margaret Clara Gress would have been Great Grandma Ella's neice.Daughter of James A and Clara (?) Gress.In the 1930 census they lived in Logan, Adams Co., Nebraska.
Ella and James were two of the 11 children of John W Gress and Olivia Josephine Tucker.The other children were: Harriet S, Anna, Leora, Henry Clay, Jennie, Emory J, Lela, Nellie M., and Josephine P.
John W Gress was possibly the son of John Grass and Susanna Cotton.With help from Dolores Rutherford, we have gotten all the way back to Jacob Grass.But would like to learn more about the GRESS family, all the brothers and sisters of Ella.If anyone could help us out it would be greatly appreciated.We also have a ton of pictures of the Gress family but unfortunately alot have no names, we would be more than happy to share them if anyone could tell us who they are.
Thank you for your help :)
Sincerely
