GARN Book Information

1045. Forest Valdola⁹ GARN (John Otis⁸ GARN, Samuel⁷ GARN, Jacob⁶ GARN, Conrad⁵ GERN, Johann Adam⁴ GERN, Johannes³ GERN, David² GERN, Johannes¹ GERN) was born on 14 Feb 1896 in Jeromesville, Ashland Co., Ohio, USA. He died on 1 Sep 1952 in Ashland, Ashland Co., Ohio, USA. Although his obituaries report that he had a daughter named Mrs. Betty Miller, we are convinced she was a step daughter. She is also named as a daughter in his wife's obituary.Erma appears with surname Baker on the 1920 U.S. Census with two daughters also with surname Baker, the name under which she married to Forest. The two daughters are Betty, age 4 and Donna, age 2y, 8m. Donna's death record clearly shows that she and therefore her older sister were daughters of Lee Baker and not Forest.

He was married to Erma Lucille MOSHER (daughter of Joseph MOSHER and Iva YOUNG) in Ohio Co., West Virginia, USA. Erma Lucille MOSHER was born on 21 Feb 1908 in Ashland Co., Ohio, USA. She died on 26 Feb 1953 in Ashland, Ashland Co., Ohio, USA.
