Lourine,

Jacob K. Gher is my husband's gg grandfather. Our genealogy looks like this:

Jacob Gher/Loretta Hall
Jacob K. Gher/Margaret Smith
Lilly Wyet Gher/Lewis Sherman Stiner
Charles Steiner/Pearl Kindle
Mabel Steiner/Willard McAlister
Thomas McAlister/Gloria Dewing

The gravestone of Jacob Gher could be Jacob K.'s father or his son. Jacob K. Gher married (2) Ida Belle Maxey and they had a son named Jacob. I have been unable to track the son. Funeral records or death records would sure help. I am still looking for the grave of Loretta (Hetty) Hall Gher. I would think it would be close to the EUB Sandbarrens Church. Jacob Gher deeded land for the church.

I look forward to hearing from you. You may contact me at twm@alaska.net.
