Abij's was his grandfather. (there is a Mary Mahnke in the pic also. I also have a pic of Wm Mahnke. If you want to know all the family info contact Virginia Cooper on West Ave in Lyndonville and I am sure she can tell you all you need to know. She is family to us, also Lyndonville historian. Sorry I cant be of more help. I am just going by what I have written down and pict from Wes's Mother and death notices.
