I am looking for the brothers and sisters of my late grandfather, James Daniel Covart. I cant really remember all of their names, but I believe Allen, Susie, Loretta, Robert were a few of them. If you have any info, I would greatly appreciate it. My Grandfather married Pola Grant Walker who has also passed. They had 3 children..Paula Collen Covart(who is my mother), Jon Mark Covart, and Dana Grant Covart. Please respond. Thank you.

Hi Rachel,

James Daniel Covart was one of 8 brothers and sisters whose parents were Robert F. Covart and Marie Estelle Rouff. Here's what I know:
Robert F. Covart b 12/14/1894 d: 10/1970 buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Bethel, NY. Robert was a PVT in CO. A 118 ENGINEERS IN WORLD WAR I. He was married 12/16/1920 to Marie Estelle Rouff b: 12/19/1901 Bethel, NY d: 12/14/1973 buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Bethel, NY.

There children were/are:
Carol Ann Covart (Wingert/Galietta) b: 1/1/1936 in Bethel, NY
Grace Rose Covart (Mullens/Holland) b: 1/11/1922 in Jersey City, NJ d: 4/2/2000
James Daniel Covart b: 2/23/1925 in Jersey City, NJ d: 12/5/1991 in Jacksonville, FL
Robert Keith "Pete" Covart b: 11/12/1926 in Jersey City, NJ d: 3/2/1994 Jacksonville, FL
Donald Elmer Covart: b: 8/5/1928 in Jersey City, NJ d: 6/15/1994 Philadelphia PA
Leslie Alan Covart b: 7/16/1931
Alan Lee Covart b: 2/15/1942 in Monticello, NY
Susan Covart (Gabriel) b: 4/9/1947 in Monticello, NY

Robert's parents were James Covart b 12/1866 in NY and Rosa Louise Relson (no one seems to know exactly how to spell her name) b: about 1871 in NY. Robert was one of 8 children.

James Covart parents were Jacob Covart b: in Pennsylvannia and Martha McIntyre b: in Ireland (according in a 1920 census of James - other messages on the board say he was born about 1825 in Englishtown, NJ, I have yet to reconcile this). James had a brother William b: about 1845.

Rosa's father was born in Pennsylvania and mother was born in Ireland (also according to the 1920 census of James)

Marie's parents were Jacob H Rouff b: 4/3/1858 in Bethel, NY
d: 1939 and buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Bethel, NY. He was married 4/29/1883 to Loretta Estelle Finnell b: 4/13/1869 in Missouri )and lived in Missouri until she married Jacob) d: 12/1950 and buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Bethel, NY. Marie was one of 9 children.

Jacob's father was also Jacob and was born in Switzerland. His mother was born in Switzerland (according to Jacob's 1920 census).

Loretta parents were both born in Missouri.

On top of all that Marie Rouff was previously married to Lewis Bernhardt and had 2 children Leland and Loretta.

I am married to Carol Covart's grandson. I have a lot more information if you're interested just let me know. Most of my information is word of mouth, but I'm slowly obtaining documention and I can send you what I have. I would love to know the descendants of James Daniel, if you could fill me in that would be great.

The other Covart postings (re: Jacob) on the message board are applicable to you also. If you haven't already, check out the Family Tree for Edna Eva Covart (James Covart sister) and Philip Bernhardt (father of Lewis Bernhardt, Marie's 1st husband). For both - click on descendants to see the family tree.

Like I said - I have more. You can contact me here or directly via e-mail.

You Distant Relative,
