Elaine,
I really don't think I have too much to help you out. Have you contacted
the Krapf and Hughes funeral home here in Hazleton? I believe they are
descended from the original KRAPF family of Hazleton and since they are a
funeral home, they might have records.
I recently posted some Hazleton marriages from abt 1880 to the Luzerne
County GenWeb Archives. I believe they were a couple of KRAPF people
mentioned there. You might want to take a look.
Over the years, I have extracted some names from the obituaries in the
Hazleton newspaper. I will list below the KRAPF people. Maybe one is
yours.
Name Age Date of paper
Henry Krapf - 6 months - 2 Oct 1879
Sophia Krapf - 5 months - 10 Apr 1879
Lewis Andrew Krapf - 3 yrs - 14 Oct 1880
John W. Krapf - -1 Dec 1893
Martha Elizabeth Krapf - 93 yrs - 3 Mar 1894
George K. Krapf - 72 yrs - 3 Apr 1900
William Krapf - - 18 Jan 1900
Elizabeth Krapf - 65 yrs - 25 Feb 1901
Betty Catherine Krapf - infant - 1 July 1930
Elvin Krapf - - 25 Feb 1935
Andrew Krapf - 30 Dec 1952
Carrie Ann Krapf - - 1 Mar 1952
Henry J. Krapf - - 17 Nov 1952
Andrew W. Krapf - 79 yrs - 27 Nov 1962
G. Edgar Krapf - 63 yrs - 10 Aug 1968
