I am in search of information regarding Emma Rachel Comfort's family. She is my Great-Grandmother. I have the following:
From the Comfort Families of America by Botting:
Page 599
Fanny Comfort's dau. Emma (b. at Tafton, Pike Col, Pa. c 1893) m. Judson Gelatt (b. at Carley Brook, PA c 1891) on March 19, 1910 at Honesdale PA. He was a glasscutter, and then at Honesdale. She at Lakeville, Crawford Co., Fanny's dau. Laura (b. at Tafton, c 1895 m. Edward Lovelass b. Berline Twp, Wayne Co., PA c 1893 at Hawley PA on Nov. 4 1913. She then at Hawley and he at Swamp Brook: he was a lumberman.)

It is my belief that Fanny was married to a John Comfort. I do not have anything on birthdate for him, but I do have an estimated date of death to be between Bet. 1897 - June 20 1900. Obviously this was deduced from the above census. Additionally the correct spelling of names, I have as follows:
William Comfort
Harriet Comfort
Laura Comfort
Jane Comfort
Cornelius Comfort
Emma Rachel Comfort
Loriavense Comfort
I was able to follow forward in the census with Emma and her brother Cornelius who housed with Leonard Degroat. I am really concentrating on tracking down Fanny's spouse and his ancestors.
Any additional information would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Ellen Kennedy
