I am a second generation Polish American on both sides of my family. The Genealogy Society I belong to introduced me to Find A Grave. I am very thankful to all who contribute. I was thrilled to find mine & my husband's family members here.
I am married to my boyfriend that I went steady with for 5 years & now am married to for 43 years. We have 3 children and 6 grandchildren. We are native Pennsylvanians, transplanted into the sandy soil of Florida.
As I was working on our famlies' genealogies a friend who was one of my babysitters along with her sister who was also my hero, sent me photos they took of me. The one I'm using for my profile was when my hero, taught me how to blow bubbles with bubble gum after my mom couldn't for weeks!

 | RE: message No problem. I expect to be in PA for about three or four days next month - going home for my mother's 80th birthday! I will try to get out to the places that you mentioned and see what I can find. | | | Barbara

 | Robert Knox Sorry, not related to this family. Entered some of the burials from online obituaries. Do you have access to Ancestry? I've found some info in old newspapers forinstance, The Indiana Gazette has oodles of info on Knox.
Saw this in Indiana Gazette 8 Apr 1933: Mrs. Calvin Blose, died in Omaha, NE age 78 years, had moved there in 1932 from Punxsutawney. Survived by husband, daughter, Mrs. Emory Williams, sons, Wilson and Clyde Blose of Sharpsburg, PA; one brother J. F. Blakley, DuBois and half brothers Clark Knox, Pittsburgh and Robert Knox, Marchand. (Sounds like their mother was married at least twice)
I will see what else there may be on the web. What/who do you know about this family so far?Added by Barbara on Aug 24, 2011 8:27 AM | | | Charlotte
