My 2nd great Grandma.


Tousley Family Bible says that the Rev. D. C. Osborne married Grandpa & Grandma, November 29th, 1865 at Akron, Ohio. Note: Even their marriage certificate has GERST & GARST both as maiden name. They have eight known children:

1) Olive Florence

2) Albert Joseph (Dec 5, 1867-Feb 13, 1868)

3) George Knox

4) Carl Carlton

5) Twin, Alice Calista

6) Twin, Harriet Elizabeth (born & died Nov 9, 1875)

7) Lloyd Joseph (Nov 16, 1880, died unknown)

8) Roy G. (Feb 10, 1883-Jan 2, 1884)


Many thanks to Ray Davidson for stone photo and for finding correct cemetery and to Mary MacCracken for birth date; you are both gems! Also, photo of Grandma Hattie taken just before her wedding provided by cousin Ramona. THANK YOU!
