Hi - Am looking for any information about Charles, Loretta, and their family. They are my gg-grandparents. Charles was born in Edwards, St Lawrence county, New York abt 1852 and apparently died before 1905 in Buchanan county - I have no information about his death or where he is buried; Loretta was born in Willow Creek, Lee county, Illinois abt 1856 and I believe died in Waukesha, Wisconsin after 1935. Charles and Loretta would have married around 1873. They were in Buchanan county, Iowa from at least 1874 onwards. Their children are: Alice May (my g-grandmother) who married Edward Postel; Leland (died young); Alzoa Ethel "Zoa" who married Fred John Moody; Ralph B who married Mabel Miller; Grace who died unmarried at age 23 in Waukesha, Wisconsin; and Marian Loretta, presumably never married, who died in Brooklyn, Poweshiek county in 1980. Loretta and most of her children belonged to the Metropolitan Church Association; Alzoa's husband Fred Moody was a minister with that organization. I've communicated with other Postel descendants over the years; would love to hear from any of Alzoa's or Ralph's descendants.
Regards, Kathy
