I was messing around with this genealogy site and found your posting.
I am the baby of your Aunt Ethel...it was great to see your name.
I am living in Texas and am the mother of two boys and a girl.
I hope this reaches you.
I hope you are doing well.
I was home to PA in the spring and mom seemed good. She really took JoAnn's death hard but seem okay for the present. Jo did so much for her and she has found the strength to go on.
Aunt Edie is in poor health and living with her daughter Pat in Lancaster.
Those Yeingst/Yingst genes are hardy.
I am not consistent with my searches but have information on the original settler...I think...
I need to close for now.
Take care and write when you can.
Your cousin in Texas...Saundra

ALOHA

I will ask my mom to confirm about the "e" in the yeingst name.
The story I remember is that your grandfather's name was misspelled on the birth certificate and this was not corrected. Many births were at home and the information was left "as is" once it was written down.
Your grandfather is my mom's brother. She is a twin and will be 82 this September.
All of her siblings except for your grandfather had the Yeingst spelling. Your grandfather, my "Uncle Dewey" was the only one of ten children to have the Yingst spelling.
Once I complete a rough "tree" of the Yeingst/Yingst family I would be glad to share it with you. You have a large estended family in the states. If you ever come stateside, it would be great to meet you.
Feel free to email directly at...swhuntz@hotmail.com
I would love to hear about your families in Hawaii. I really have lost touch and only know bits and pieces of where everyone is.

Hello Chester:
I am your Grandfather's niece... I hope I have that right. My mother is Thelma and she was #10 of the family. You asked why your name is missing the E. When I was a little girl, I asked "uncle Dewey" why the e was missing.... and his response, was "If the I were missing I couldn't see"

I have heard also, that the doctors delivered most all babies in the home, and he wrote the name on the birth certificate. I do not know WHY no one ever changed it over the years.... or soon after birth.....
I visited with Uncle Dewey in 1978 with my mother and Father, and Uncle Ben and his daughter Marlene.

David and your Dad took us sightseeing. One afternoon we stopped at a house that was swarming with kids...... you were probably in that bunch of kids..... Some of the kids had red/orange hair and freckles.... that is a Yeingst trait. Keep in touch, I hope this reaches you

I am confused as to who your father is? I am guessing it is David? David, Kenny and Debbie are my first cousins. Your grandfather (chester) Dewey... was my uncle.. and my mother's brother.

I think your grandmother Elizabeth should know where Debbie is, since it is her daughter...

Let me know you age.. and maybe we can sort out all of these cousins and put them on a tree.....

Kisses to you
Doreen

sorry about the confusion
