I am looking from information about my adopted Grandfather. I know Jessie Roberta Smaltz and Alexander J Smaltz moved to Pittsburg, Crawford Kansas sometime in the 30's. Alex Died in 1944 and Jessie Died in 1949.

I have pictures of their gravestone where the name was changed back to his birth name of Schmaltz. Good chance that Alex was a miner as that was his normal occupation in Luzerne, PA and Miami, Arizona.

His brother Fred Schmaltz also lived in the area. Any information will be appreciated.
