Surnames: Gaffney, Ruppert, Ketke, Lock Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/oh0.2ACEB/1769.1 Message Board Post: Doing a purely random search on the internet turns up a couple of interesting names in this message posting. i.e., the names Ruppert and Gaffney in the same person. My grandmother was Sara Madelline Ketke (maiden name Ruppert). Her mother (my great-grandmother was ?-Nellie Gaffney). Her father was Peter J. Ruppert. They lived in Lemont, Illinois for many years. If anyone can help me connect the dots, I'd be very appreciative. copy me on my e-mail if you can. --thanks, Edward Lock [email protected]
