Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, their family was from Janesville, Wisconsin. My great grandmother was Jessie Croake Spellen and her brother, Thomas, was the father to Maybelle Croake who I took care of. She was born in 1904 and died in 2008. I'm trying to figure out if I have their father correct - I didn't realize there were so many Croke/Croak/Croakes in Wisconsin!

I'm going to the Calvery Cemetary in Evanston,IL this weekend - I think there may be a few distant relatives buried there.

Hello again,

Yes, a good portion of my relatives from the Croake side were from Janesville. My ggrandmother was Jessie Croake, her father was Nicholas Croake and all are buried her in the Chicagoland area. My ggrandmother was born in Janesville. Any information you can provide would be very much appreciated. My sister and I are planning a Spring visit to Janesville to check out their cemetaries
