Does this name sound familiar to anyone? I have my gg grandfather's razor. On the blade itself, is a manufacturer's name Friedmann Lautersung....Electric. The razor has a leather case, with the wording "Blue Steel Warrented...Price $3.00" printed by the manufacturer. My gg grandfather was Maximo E. Emley, possibly born around 1860, but not sure. He married (1) Prudence Lee, (2) Mary C. He lived in Franklin Twp., Warren Co. OH. His son Wilbur John Emley was born in 1877; Maximo got divorced in 1879; Maximo's will is probated 1918. I do not know when he died or where he is buried, nor what the "E" in his middle name stands for. Family lore says he was once the Mayor of Sharonville, Ohio (time frame unknown.) I am wondering why a non-electric razor would have the word "Electric" printed on it. Could it possibly be an advertising item for an actual electric company? I'm hoping the origin/age/history of the razor may give me a clue about Maximo. I don't know what he did for a living, but maybe he worked for an electric company if there was such a company named Friedmann Lautersung. Maximo carved his name on the leather case for the razor. I guess any clue is worth pursuing! My second question: Maximo's 2nd wife was listed as "Mary C." in his will (mentioned above.) How would I go about finding out who she is? Are there legal records from the execution of a will/estate? Thanks, Peggy Dyas Virginia Beach Allein@webtv.net
