ATTN: Jan Hunerdoose:

I had written to Bill Rathman earlier. Below is our exchange of correspondence.

For your information, I was born in the Jefferson County Hospital, as were my sisters, Dorothy and Judith. In addition, my Dad's twin sisters, Marjorie Marie (Rodenmayer) Messer and Margaret Caroline (Rodenmayer) Miksch, were the first set of twins ever born there.

In the event you are interested, I have traced our Rodenmayer, Messer, Miksch, and my Mom's Kruse and Thomas families. I would be happy to send you all the information. Or, could perhaps deliver it to you when I pass through the area on a research trip in latter April.

Please let me know via e-mail if you and the Genealogical Society are interested.

Warm regards, John Rodenmayer, Reynoldsburg, OH

Hi John:

Thank you for the information. I will work on that soon.

We have so much material we are trying to get on our site and so few volunteers that we are slow getting it on site. But little by little we are
getting there. Later I will have the material on Evergreen Cemetery available when I am ready for it but we are really just working up to it. That will be a really big job, It will take months to get that all transcribed and then we have to build the pages for it. We have been trying to get much of our older material on before we move all of our volunters (3) on to it. To get the material on your paternal grandmother, Iva T.
(Cooper-Miller) Rodenmayer I would suggest you post that request on our Query Page at http://iagenweb.org/boards/jefferson/queries/ Jan Hunerdoose of the Jefferson County Genealogical Society or several other people that
monitor that page will probably respond to you. I just do not have the material here at home to answer your request.

Thanks again.

Bill Rathbuun

Would you like to have the data on them, to add to the partial list you have for the Evergreen Cemetery?
