Hello,
My GG grandmother was Kathryn Emmit she was supposedly from Germany. She supposedly married Lemaul Eckert (unknown location) prior to 1860. She had several children including my g grandfather George Emmit Eckert, b. 1860 in Monroe, MI. George may have had a brother Frank that lived in Kansas at one time.
Does this sound familiar to anyone out there?? Please help. Robin.
