In a family tree worked on by my great-grandfather's sister Adele (Schmidt) Knock, I have an Ivan W. Eckler married to Laura K. Schmidt, of Mahanoy City, with 5 children (in no particular order): Sevilla (Shomgard), Blanche (Becker), John, Marle, and George. If this is the same family, I would love offer you any information I have, though it consists only of names on the Schmidt side. I would also be quite appreciative if there are any blanks you could help me to fill in. Thanks, Charles Schmidt Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
