[INALLEN-L] Yerkes
by Cean and Tiana Burgeson
I have come to a dead end on researching the Yerkes / Yerks family. My
ancestor is William Yerkes b: Oct 2 1825 in Canada. He married Sarah A.
Fletter on Nov. 7, 1852 not sure where. They had most of their 10 children
in Allen County, Indiana during the 1850's. Their daughter Christina Adline
Yerkes b: Nov. 11 1857 is my ancestor.
I believe William's parents may be John (Yerks) Yerxes and Christina ? who
both died in St. Joseph Twsp. Allen County and I beleive are burried in
Parker Cemetery. I don't have that much information on them though. Does
anyone know of this family? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank
you.
