Here is some info on a Basting Family from Chicago the details come few and far between but I am hot on the trail I think. If anyone out there can help please write. Thanks
John BASTING married Gertrude (unknown)
Gertrude passed away in Chicago late 1950's - early 60's
Seeking info on Gertrude maybe an Obit somewhere?
I believe this John BASTING is the son of John & Mary BASTING who came to Chicago from Hungary in 1912.
Question: If they did not arrive through Ellis Island in 1912 where else would they have entered the US and they were listed as Aliens in 1920 Federal Census.
Children included:
Charles BASTING who married Mary CAMPBELL 1963 (Both living)
Irene married Mike (unknown)
Geraldine (Called Geri) married Richard STONE
Both John and Gertrude are no longer living.
If anyone can pin point this family group please let me know.
Thank You
Lori Basting
