Laura A. Dunkelberger was my grandmother and was indeed married to Jacob C. Taylor. I've never known her parents names. However, Katie, her sister, was married to John Thomas Taylor of Earl Township who was Jacob's brother. the marriage was annulled in 1913, so she could not have died in 1911. also my father spoke of visiting her in Pa. in the thirties. is it possible there are two Katie Dunkelbergers? is the book you mention available commercially? I cannot thank you enough for your help. I'm delighted to know myggrandparent's names. regards-carol
