FREDERICK J.ASCHE

Hello...

My grandfather was named Weert Asche (b. 1914, d. 1940), & he was married to Leona Rasmussen. Weert was killed in a traffic accident in February 1940; Leona died 12/1/2008 at the age of 91. After Weert died, Leona remarried; her second husband was Glen Sheets, who died in 1985.

Weert had a younger brother named Martin, who would occasionally visit us when I was still living with my parents (we lived in Sioux City, Iowa). The last I heard of Martin, he was living in Florida.

The father of Weert & Martin was named Ludwig.

If my Great-uncle Martin is your father, then you & my mother are cousins.

The children of Weert & Leona (Rasmussen) Asche:

Martha (Asche) Van Antwerp
John Asche
Norma Ann (Asche) Craft

Norma is my mother. She was born 9/28/1940, a few months after Weert was killed.

On 6/3/1958, my mother married Ross Cecil Craft (nicknamed "Butch") in Hot Springs, SD. They had 4 children:

Ralph Allen Craft (b. 2/11/1959)
Deborah Lynn Craft-Marks (b. 4/17/1960)
Ronald Joseph Craft (b. 1/9/1962)
Rosalie Ann Craft-Andersen (b. 11/25/1963)

My father died 7/23/1994.

One thing I did find out...in the mid-1970s, my parents, siblings, & I visited one of Weert's sisters in Rock Rapids, Iowa (for the life of me I can't remember her name). She told us that the Asche family was 100% German, but that her mother (also the mother of Weert & Martin) was 100% Polish.

I realize this post I'm responding to is rather old, but I thought I would pass what info I had to you. If you have any other info please let me know.
