Seeking family information about the following GOLD family. Would particularly like to make contact with any living relatives. I have good reason to believe that Max had siblings that remained in Columbus and/or Cleveland. Isaac Gold (originally named GOLDGLEJT or GOLDGLEYT) had at least one son, Max (Motl) Gold. Max was born 04/16/1888, Grodno, Belarus and died 09/29/1963, Los Angeles, CA. He married Jennie (Zelda) Feierman. Jennie was born 01/26/1891, Minsk, Belarus and died 06/13/1969, Los Angeles, CA.

Samuel CODNER and Lydia PETERSON CODNER. m. 7 February 1823, Madison Twp. Franklin Co., Ohio. Looking for descendants of daughters of Frederick PETERSON: Mary SWISHER, Lydia CODNER, and Rhoda STEPHENSON/STEVENSON My request for information on Samuel CODNER and Lydia PETERSON CODNER was generated from the book "Ohio Source Records from the Ohio Genealogical Quarterly". On page 485 of the book, (Ohio Genealogical Quarterly Vol. 6, No. l, p. 500 - footnote) I found the following paragraphs: ** " Franklin Co., Ohio, Marriage Records, Court House Columbus, Ohio state: PETERSON, Lidia married Samuel CODNER 3.7-,1823. Richard COURTRIGHT, J.P. PETERSON; Rhoda m. Richard STEVENSON, June 23, 1807 by Massey CLYMER, J. P. Frederick PETERSON gives consent. Witnesses: Phillip SWISHER, John SWISHER, William PETERSON. The Ohio State Journal reported "married Miss Lydia PETERSON and Samuel CODNER, in Madison Twp. Feb. 7. 1823." The March date of the court record may be the date the return was made to the court by the justice of peace. Page 486 : "There are no descendants of Frederick PETERSON by name of PETERSON known to be living in Franklin Co., Ohio, today. There are, however, many descendants of his daughters, Mary SWISHER, Lydia CODNER, and Rhoda STEPHENSON (STEVENSON)."

I am trying to locate dates of birth and full given names of children of William R. YOAK that were born in Franklin County during the late 1950's and early 1960's. I have an old photo marked "1962" of a child about 6 months old which is labeled "Grace Ann YOAK" and indicates William R. YOAK is the father. I have been told that there were siblings of Grace Ann but know no more. Any help you can provide would be helpful as I believe that Grace Ann and any of her siblings are half-sister (brother) to me but I had no idea they existed.
