My immigrant ancestors, Bernhardt and Elizabeth (Fischer) Erk came to the US arriving June 1867. Their oldest three children (Elias Adam, George, Bernadine (Lena), were born in Ger. Grace and Christina/Christine were born in US. Bernhardt was the son of Caspar Erk of Germany.
Son Elias married Margaret Bryan of Ireland on Dec. 29, 1890 in Waterbury. They had three children: Bernhardt Wilhelm, Edward Christopher, and Ruth.
Bernhardt married Gladys Louise Dailey and they were my grandparents.
Does anyone connect with this line.
