Hello! Just beginning my search (though, I tapped into this board 10 years ago, but didn't get very far). Grandmother is Adele Tepe (married Coleman Willging). Believe her mother to be Anna Tepe. Grandmothers brothers were: Ray, Ed (Edwin, I think), and I believe there were two more, but unfortunately I do not know their names.

I would love any information if these are relatives to you!

Interesting. My Mother was a Tepe and we have researched her background to a large family that came from Elizabeth, PA. I have her parents marriage certificate and the one thing that has always puzzled us is that they were married in Hamilton County, Ohio. Could they have been cousins maybe with the Tepe's you are researching? We have always been curious about this.
My grandfather's mother name was Carrie.

Yes! Has to be the same family. Hamilton County is Cincinnati. I'll start looking in Elizabeth, PA now too. Thank you for the help. I haven't gone very far, but I can certainly answer any questions that you might stumble across, if I know.

Thank you!

My grandmother was a Tepe who lived in what is now Jefferson Hills, PA-was just Jefferson in the past. It is right across the Monongahela River fron Elizabeth. There were two very large farms adjoining one another. I believe her grandfather's name was Christopher. I have had no luck finding their immigration date altho I believe they entered through New Orleans and i believe spent time in Cinncinnati.
