My great grandfather, Edward Pfaff, was adopted by Margaret Pfaff [married name] who was born in Germany in 1815. I believe that she was previously married to a Hartleben. Edward's dob was 11/29/1864 in Pennsylvania. I suspect that he may have been a civil war orphan. Please contact me if you have any information.

An Edward Pfaff was Assistant Keeper at a Washington State lighthouse in 1906 and his wife's name was Lula. Any chance this is your Great Grand? Info on the light station is here: www.burrowsislandlighthouse.com and you can follow the Facebook link to a conversation about Edward.

Too bad. I'll be checking census records to try and determine where our Edward disappeared to post 1906. Our fear is that he was injured or even killed, which would explain why his wife was named assistant and he disappeared from the payroll.

Good luck with your search.
