Terri - My Great Grandmother's maiden name was Croak. Born in
Croak Hollow near Loch Haven, PA. At this point that's all
the info I have but tomorrow I'll have more - as soon as I speak to my mother.
My Great Grandmother's full name was Cordelia Blanche Croak. She married Joseph Manderville Wertz.

Almost forgot ...
I have a relative named Kenny Croak in TX - his
grandfather was my Great Grandmothers Brother.
My mother just gave me his name to contact him about
family history. I'll let you know more if the name Phillip comes up.

I hope this helps.

My mother, Wanda Long (maiden name Wertz - daughter of Joseph Wertz - Cordelia's son and Freda Gearhart)
knew a George Shilling
who was Chief of Police in Renova - same??

She is familiar with Lewis Croak, Albert, Rheuben,
John, Hilda, all siblings of Cordelia.
She also knows their children. She does
not recognize Lois Ann. What are Lois Ann's parents names?

Well my dad, George E. Shilling, Jr. got back to me about my mother Lois Ann Croak(she passed 11/7/99) Dad said all he knows about my mom's parents is that her step-father was Frank Drabic and mother is Betty Drabic from Renovo,PA. Dad also said and I remember my mom saying that her real father passed away when she was very young. Hence mom's name being Croak(from her real father) then her mother remarried as Drabic. So her mothers name was previously Betty Croak.
Thanks so much for your messages(Shilling post too!). I was able to spend memorable time with my Grandfather George Sr. and your "posts make my day!" all the wonderful memories coming back.....I am going to copy this to the Shilling site as to keep things going. tom
