My grandmother was Mary Weaver, who lived with the Kolash family and was a half-sister to Anton Jarkowsky. I am trying to figure this out, as according the 1880 census Anton was born in 1843 and my grandmother was born in 1858, or about.which makes him a lot older, but not impossible. It would appear then, that their mother married first to Jarkowsky, then Weaver. Their mother would be my great grandmother, and I am trying to search her name, birthplace, or her husbands given name (Weaver). Mary Weaver's parents both died when she was very young but I can't find where they are buried. She went to live with the Kolash family. The connection there appears to be that her half-brother, Anton, married Mary Kolash (daughter to the Kolash family who took her in when an orphan. Any info on the Weaver connection (Mary Weaver's parents) appreciated.
