My great grandfather was Morris Monroe Rubright b. Frackville, Schuylkill PA 1869 d. 12/25/1893 was married to Rosa Kaup. They had two sons before his death. Morris Monroe and George Monroe.
His son, George Monroe was my grandfather b. 1888 d. 196?
His son, Maurice (Morris) Franklin was my father b. 1910
All were from Frackville but my grandfather, and his brother Morris, moved their families to Akron, Ohio where my father grew up. Not sure when but I know he went to elementary school in Akron.
The names that show on the information that I have include:
Dewalt, Kissinger, Moyer, Wheeler, Rickenbach, Fraunfelder, Rothermel,Winter, Klopp Washer.
My grandfather told me that his father went to work at the mine on Christmas because of the financial need. He reportedly fell from a "tipple" not sure what this is. He remembered the news being brought to the family.
I have a muzzle loader gun that belonged to a family member that preceded my great grandfather. It appears to be quite old, well used and primitive.
