I believe that Wilma F. "Fauth'" Jones [Grand] Mother would be Minnie Alexander if this is so then Wilma's Grand parents are Samuel Alexander and Jane Jennie Mayberry Hagen. If this is so I would love to connect with Wilma if possible because my great grand father was Samuel Alexander's Brother John Adam Alexander.
Let me see I have Ernest L.Fauth Born 21 Sep 1906 Died 19 Jan 1995 Quarryville. PA. Wife Verna Mae Good Born Martic Twp Lancaster Co, PA 17 Feb 1910 D.14 Jul 1981 Qurryville, PA. They have a daughter Wilma F. Fauth I have no more info on her but Wilma's Mother, Verna Mae, was the daughter of Adam R. Good Born Mar 1875 and Minnie E. Alexander Born Martic Twp, Lancaster Co, PA 8 Dec 1876
