I found Julia A. Stofer listed in the Washington Death Index, 1940-1996. Date of Death Nov 28, 1972, Tumwater (Thurston Co.), Washington. Resident of Olympia. Perhaps you could request her death certificate which might list her parents.

I also found a cached page at Newspapers.com, which requires subscription to view the original. But using the cached page, it appears that it's from pg 6 of the Franklin, PA News-Herald, Sept 29, 1956 and the OCR version of the blurb reads: "Mrs. Julia Stofer, of Log Angeles, Calif., is here for a visit with her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. A. Wayne Jones, 1116 Buffalo Street. Cousins of Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Stofer, Mr. and Mrs. Willi Aebi, of Burgdorg, Switzerland, will arrive Sunday and will be overnight guests here." I'm assuming that "Log Angeles" is Los Angeles.

Thank you very much for your interest in my search for data on Julia Aebi Stofer. I had found her death date, but your info from the newspaper may be very helpful. A problem: she does not appear in any census records with the family, but have Frank Aebi in Franklin as her father due to some info found with census data and obituaries.

Are you related to this family? Thanks again. Judy Fleming

You're welcome. I'm pretty certain that I have located Julia's family (parents, & siblings) in the 1910 census. They are indexed as "Albe" on Ancestry.com, but the image looks pretty clear to me that it's AEBI. I've even submitted a correction for their consideration.

They reside at 3305 Circle St., Pittsburgh, PA. It's HH 164/203, ED 556,Pittsburgh Ward 6. Family consists of Head: Frank Aebi, age 35 born "Switz German". Immigrated in 1899. Wife is Rosa, age 33. Married 12 years. She's the mother of 5 children with 4 living. Children in the household are Margaret age 11, born Switz German; Frank age 11 also born Switz German; Julia age 6 born PA; and Cora R. age 3 born PA.

No, I'm not related to this family; but my oldest daughter's birth father was an Aebi so I check the boards periodically and am happy to help out where I can.

Thanks again. I did not have access to the 1910 census in my rather short time search and you gave me Julia in the family via her brother and sisters in the obituary. This is a collateral line for me on my father's line and helps put some finish on his cousins. Great of you to share your finds and the help you gave me. Judy
