Greetings!
I have just started looking in to the Glatch family history on behalf of my son, who will be working on a family tree school project soon. My paternal grandfather was Joseph Glatch, Gilbert, MN., and his father was John Glatch or Glach, born August 5, 1879. If I am getting the story straight, John had a first wife, name not known to me, and either 2 or 3 children when he departed Yugoslavia. He left out of Braman, Germany and arrived in the port of Baltimore on the date September 11, unknown year. At some point, this first marriage ended and he married Ann, who became the mother of Joseph and about 7 other children. I believe that one of John Glatch's children with his first wife settled near Milwaukee,WI and one in Ely, MN. Some of John and Ann's other children are named Ed Glatch, Ann Arko, Tony Glatch, to name a few.
