Erk Ginkens
I have asked family members about Erk and there aren't any relatives remaining that knew anything.I think I saw a posting elsewhere that talked about Erk's suspected upbringing.It would make sense to me.There appears to be a large family of Ginkens that was from Pleasant Plaine Iowa.My parents were totally unaware of it.That seems really odd considering that would not have been far from where my father's family originated.
Feel free to email me with more info or questions.Unfortunately I don't have much to share but am interested in helping out where I can.
