Looking for connections to LUMBARD, Joseph Asher and wife Sara Scharf. Joseph was publisher and Editor of Snyder county tribune from 1874 to 1913. He died in 1915. I am interested in finding out names of of his parents and place of burial of all concerned. I have a name Mary DUCK or DRUCK and think it may be his mother, but don't know where the name LUMBARD came into being. Perhaps she was a remarried widow. My father is George W. Lumbard son of George Meade Lumbard son of Joseph. Joseph served in Union army during Civil war in Co. G 147th rev. PA Vol. Inf. Joseph retired from newspaper business in 1913. I have a letter written by him to his mother. I am interested in knowing where the LUMBARD family came from in Europe. I have always been told that we have a German background. I would grateful for any information that I can obtain through this posting. Peggy Lumbard Brill
