Edward G. STRAUB & Mary B. MESSICK

Diana, Goddess of the Hunt — for Ancestors!

Edward G. STRAUB
Mary Belle MESSICK

Husband: Edward G. STRAUB
Birth: Mar 1866, PA — either Lewisburg, Union Co., PA, or Mount Joy, Lancaster Co., PA
Occupation: dentist
Father: Elisha STRAUB
Mother: Elizabeth GIBBONY

Marriage: 1886/7

Wife: Mary Belle MESSICK
Birth: Apr 1870, WI
Occupation: homemaker

Mother: Belle J. __?__, b. Nov 1847, WI

My inability to find Mary and her mother in the 1870 and 1880 censuses suggests MESSICK may not be Mary's maiden name; that is, that her mother remarried some time after 1880 to a Mr. MERRICK.

Children:

1. Hazel A. STRAUB, b. Feb 1890, MI
