I am searching for my cousins, Aunts and Uncles in the Rawe family. My name is Judith Ann Rawe Shamp. My father was John Albert Rawe. He was raised as John Albert and it wasn’t until near the time of his death that he found that his name was actually George Rawe. His Father was George Matthew Rawe who worked making shoes and his mother was Jennie Taulbee. Sometime before the death of George M. Rawe he and Jennie separated and divorced. When he died there was some sort of problems between the two families, the Rawe and Taulbee’s, and my dad didn’t see his dad’s people again. In 1930 Jennie Taulbee Flynn passed away from the same TB that George Matthew Rawe died from. This left my father with no biological family to turn to; he was an orphan at 16. His stepfather Mr. William Flynn was all that he had left. I know that someone there know the story about the family and what the problem was that tore them all apart. It was sad to know that when my father died none of his Dad’s folks even sent a card. I want to know my Cousins, Aunts, and Uncles that I never have met and hope that someone can help me out. Once a gentleman, Jim Rawe, sent me a letter, I have since lost contact with him and hope that he will see this and contact me again. His father was my dad’s half brother. Please, I know so very little about the Rawe family can someone help me. They are all gone now and I am certain that whatever happened should have been buried and forgotten long ago Judith Rawe Shamp [email protected]
