I'm searching for information on the mother of August Goeke, Jr. I believe August changed the spelling of his last name to Yakie.
August was born in Halletsville, Lavaca County, Texas in 1896. His mother had four children from a previous marriage to a Mr. Herman(?) Pohl. Those children were Emma born 1885, Herman, Jr. born 1887, Julius Arnold born 1889 and Betha born 1891.
I believe the mother of August was named Rosa Gold. She was last living in Jefferson County when one of her granddaughters was a young child.
Please 'e' me at
crp.skeeters@pdq.net if you are connected to this family and have any information you are willing to share.
Thanks in advance.
