I had always been told it was Gillette.Now in searching and going thru personal belongings of Grandparents I have found actual letters from family and the spelling Gelatt has come up several times. I do not have much at all on this side. Family I do have. Earl Leon Gillette and Minnie Stone Gillette had 4 daughters and 1 son. Margaret, Lillian,Elizabeth, Imogene, and Ansel. I am searching for earlier Ancestors. I believe they lived at some point in Tobyhanna Area. Minnie died when children were very young and Earl Leon married a lady named Anona

just saw this listing, not sure if you got it figured out, but i do know that margaret was a gilette, and she married a silver, my grandma jennie was a silver and married a gelatt. so the two names are intertwined.

I sent you an email to your aol and thru here. Oh yes I have it figured out. Grandma Margaret was Gillette. The two were not related. Gillette and Gelatt other than by marriage. Richard Wellington Silver was your Grandma Jennie's Brother. He was my Grandfather.

My Grandma Jennie was also a Silver married to Charles from Edmeston. We must be cousins.
