Thank you Lynn for your response.I wrote my mother-in-law Gloria Letcher Blizzard asking her to type it and send it to you directly by email. Then, I will post it here for others to see. You can repost a response here too. My mother-in-law's mother was Gertie(Gertrude)Lee Klopfenstein. Her mom was Millie Cook...better known as grandma Dude! She did the Cherokee run and lived in a dug out. Anyway, Gertie married Rev. Stanley Letcher. She was born around 1908...date is not correct, but approx. She had a sister Pearl and Rose...several girls. I do have a question for you.Is this name German or Jewish?My mother-in-law saw it in Alsace(SP) Lorraine...France where many Jews were fleeing to. There was some discussion of the spelling KLOPFENSTINE? Gloria has 2 cousin's I met in Mo. for a funeral.Both are brothers: 1 a lawyer and the other a Ob-gyn Dr. who has diabetes. Do you know them? Their mother was a Klopfenstein. I hope I got this some what correct!
I look fwd to chatting more with you!
