Sylvester W. Groshong
I am interested in finding other descendants of Sylvester W. Groshong (son of Jefferson Jeremiah Groshong).According to his obituary, at the time of his death in 1918 his living children were Samuel H. of Washington, John Jefferson of McLouth, Kansas, Mrs. Lillie E. Seavey of Los Angeles, Alva C. of near Smithville, and Earl Sylvester (my grandfather) of Burbank.At the time of his death he had twenty grandchildren.
My father was not born until after Sylvester's death and does not recall ever meeting any first cousins.Earl had 3 children, two still living, and 5 grandchildren, of whom I am the youngest.
Previous posters on this forum appear to be descendants of Alva.I would be interested in hearing from them or any other descendants.If anyone else is interested in filling out their records on the Groshong line, I can send what I have on this branch & on his second wife Martha Fleshman and her family.
