I've "rescued" an old photograph of the home of L. P. ROACH of Plainfield, Iowa. The photograph appears to have been taken in the early 1900's. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding the family: Lewis Peter ROACH was b. 25 May 1874 in Plainfield, IA to parents John ROACH (b. 16 Mar 1848 in Kilkenny, Ireland-d. 4 Mar 1905 Plainfield, IA) and May WANNEMAKER (1856-1880). Lewis was one of two children born to this couple including a brother Edwin Alonzo ROACH b. 1876 in Plainfield, IA. Lewis' father married a second time after the death of May ROACH, this time to Adorah Blanche WIRE with whom he had three children, Addie; Lela Sarah; Maudie ROACH. Lewis married Carrie Genetta FEATHER (b. 28 Apr 1877 in IA-1958) on 26 Feb 1910 in Elk River, MN and together they had a son, James L. ROACH (1912-1967). Lewis died 3 Sept 1939 in Rochester, MN and is buried in the Willow Lawn Cemetery in Plainfield, IA. At the time of his death he was survived by his wife, son, and three grandsons, Jay, Thomas, and William ROACH along with a brother, Edwin Alonzo ROACH of Plainfield, and a sister, Mrs. John COLLINS of Isleton, CA.
