I wish to enquire about the fourth child of Henry & Iva Mae (ADERS) GELARDEN, Robert. I believe this Robert to be the same Robert who married as his second wife, my dad’s second cousin, Mary Elizabeth DAVIS, b.23 Nov 1910 in Indianapolis, Indiana.

My Robert & Mary had five children born between 1941 & 1954, my third cousins. I have information on their spouses and children. This information was provided to me by Mary Elizabeth’s brother who died just a year ago at age 100. My third cousins for some reason won’t respond directly to my inquiries.

I would enjoy corresponding with you all, however any sensitive information I would want to restrict to family relations, my e-mail address is watsoninbeacon@verizon.net.

I have put together a GELARDEN family tree using the 1850 thru 1930 census, which starts with Jacob (b.1794) & Elizabeth (b.1802), I have also tried to include information obtained from older message boards, particularly from Kimberly & Linda. All I have so far are my work sheets, the varied last name spelling made them difficult to locate. I have also placed the basic information in my World Family Trees program, the printout presents a five generation descendant printout of mainly male off-spring.
