Galveston County, Texas, Genealogy Web Page, Queries Section-- A new message, "Flake query," was posted by Lauren Flake on Fri, 23 Apr 1999 It is a response to "FLAKE, MOREY, LOCKWOOD," posted by Rosemary Sodolak Ermis on Wed, 07 Apr 1999 --- NAME: Lauren Flake EMAIL: flake@iolusa.com SURNAMES: Flake DATE: Apr 23 1999 Hello Rosemary. My name is Lauren Flake. I am married to Ronnie Flake (of Galveston County, Texas). His grandfather is Philip Sayers Flake. Philip's father is Otto Flake. Otto is E.M.'s brother. Their father is Ferdinand (no dates on him yet). Ferdinand was the town marshal of Galveston during the Civil War. He also was an editor of several newspapers. There are 17 rolls of microfilm at Rosenberg Library of Ferdinand's newspapers. I began looking through the first, dated in 1865. Otto and his wife Laura are buried in Galveston. I plan to continue looking for information, and will post you as I learn anything on the Flake family. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Lauren.
