Hi Mike
Thanks for your email.I found your submission at WorldConnect, so I want to work through your GEDCOM there and see if there are some sources I could use, or any Qs. I'll get back to you. If I can be helpful for your research, let me know.
My interest in the Keberts is rather peripheral. George Alonzo Kebert (son of George and Elisabeth) married Margaret Ann Marshall. Margaret in turn descends from Thornburghs -- my mother's line. Margaret and I would be 2c2r.
By an extraordinary coincidence, I had an email query a couple of days ago concerning Eva Kebert (daughter of George Alonzo) and her husband. What are the odds? I see in your submission that Eva was still unmarried in 1941. That squares with my own research, which had suggested that she and Gouley Francis Woodsmall married rather late.
Best,
Bob Pedersen
