I'm researching this family for a friend... here's the line she has thus far:
1. Israel Yoast m. Florence ____ (no places or names known)
2. Jacob H. Yoast, b. ca. 1885, d. 1941, m. Anna Mae Bennett d/o Jacob Bennett and Anna Maude Hylton
3. Jacob Bennett Yoast, b. January 31, 1909 in Philadelphia (her grandfather)
I'd like to correspond with anyone who can add to this line!
Thanks...

Hi,
Is Florence's maiden name Gauger?
If so, I may be able to help.

Hi...
We'd thought that Florence was an Emick. Do you have an Israel Yoast/Florence Gauger that fits the rest of the information? Yoast is an uncommon enough name that I'd suspect that there was a connection anyhow. I'm very interested in trading information....
Cheers,
Gordon Bonnet/Carol Bloomgarden (Jacob Yoast's granddaughter)

Hello,
I checked with my mother and she told me that I have the names confused. My great aunt Eleanor was married to Israel Yoast. They called him Uncle Rubber. The had 3 daughters, Dorothy, Janet and Elizabeth (Biffy). As you said it is such an unusual name I thought perhaps there was a connection. I also had a great aunt Florence Gauger.
Sorry for the confusion.
