Looking for descendants of Julius Joseph Ept. Born in Hesse Cassel, Germany and lived in Columbus, OH until his death in 1955. A lot of Epts are buried in Greenlawn Cemetary in Columbus. I am trying to figure out who Julius's parents were. I have family pictures and information that I would share with cousins. Julius's wife was Barbara Smith, daughter of Peter Smith and Margaret Feder. The family name was Schmidt but, he changed it when he emigrated to the USA. Julius and Barbara had seven children Benjamin George, Ida Mabel (my grandmother),Andrew F., Katherine "Kate" P., Gladys E., Margaret A. and Mildred.
