Emma, the dau of Julius and Wilhelmina Kaufman Rostenbach married Edward Swan. The Emma Rostenbach you are talki8ng about was Emma Bell R ostenbach married to Gustav Rostenbach. I have a lot more info on this family including many generations back in Germany. Please email with specific questions and I will try to put something more together in the next few days.
