Harry Elk came to the U.S.,from Germany, with his older brother (name ?) when he was 12 or 13yrs. old. We know that they were in Tennessee but do not think the brother came to Texas with Harry.
He married Tina C. Cobb in Fannin County, Texas on Dec. 13, 1886. He died of pnemonia when His son was about 12 years old.(around the turn of the century. Does anyone know of Harry's brother (do not know name) in Tennessee
