Re: Ernest Garske m. Augustine Pofahl/Pophal, Akron

Dear Patricia,
I have been remiss in keeping contact, please forgive my tardiness.
What sort of info can I send to you?
I have a lot of stuff in a spreadsheet form, glad to share.
Have a Merry Christmas and I look forward to sharing our Garske heritage.

"...I am so excited! By accident I found your email with my ancestors names. Hopefully you are still accessing information and will find my email.
My great grandfather and great grandmother were Charles and Anna (Garske) Short. They were my maternal grandmother's parents. What I know...they sold their farm in New York state and retired to Starke, Florida, where they died. My grandmother, Viola Bancroft, was married to Wayne Bancroft. They lived in Warren, Ohio, and are the parents of Edward (Ft. Lauderdale, Florida), Florence (Bancroft)Towers(my mother) (Randolph, New York), Claudia, (Wayne) Lee, and William (the last three residing in Warren, Ohio). Grandma Bancroft passed away in February 2004 in Warren, Ohio. I would love to be in contact with you to find out more about my family's ancestory. To this point my knowledge and research has been limited. Please feel free to contact me... Thank you for your time Sincerely, Patricia Towers"
