Two people in particular that I am looking for are a John Forceski / Forcheski and his wife, Luella / Louella. However, others are welcome. Luella (Geistwite) Forceski was my grandmother's aunt. Both her and her husband died rather young. John may have been born in 1910 and died, as the story goes, in a "pocket" mine around 1940. Luella was also born about 1910 and is said to have died of possible stomach cancer around 1942. Oddly, she died in a house that would later become a homestead for my father's family. Luella's son, Eugene, born before the marriage and not connected to John Forceski, says she and John were buried up in Shamokin. I have been told that there may have been another son born after the marriage, possibly a John Jr., but he knew nothing about him. Eugene was raised by Luella's parents after her death. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
