I Andrea. Thank you so much for replying to my query. I am not related to the
Platter's but my half brother is a grandson of Charles "Raymond" Platter.
I know this is going to make me feel really old, but whose granddaughter are you? My
mother was Lester Platter's second wife. I came to Iowa to live with my mother after
she remarried so I knew all of the "aunts". I didn't know any of them very
well, of course, since none of them lived in Polk Co. but there were lots of family
reunions, etc. in the summer.
I have a copy of Rev. Platter's family history back through the Swiss migration to
Germany. Perhaps we could "share and compare".
