Frances Gaster b. 1882 & James Gaster b. 1847 of Ark. roots
Does anyone have information on my grandmother, Frances Lee Gaster and her parents? James and Ellen Gaster?James Gaster was born in Arkansa and his father and mother were from Louisiana. Ellen (no last name) was from Mississippi.
Frances married Dr. Robert Newton Smith in 1908 and they had two children Robert Lee and Edwin Lamar b. 1912(my father), but Frances died in 1913. I believe there was some Pennsylvania dutch blood on Frances' side so there could be a connection with Henry Gaster of Pennsylvania.
