Born, bred & raised here in Dayton, Ohio. Retired Fed. civil servant from Wright-Patterson AFB, my last assignment as the Exec Admin to the AF Museum Director. Started researching my Dad's side of the family (Leffler) over 40 yrs ago when I found out about a brother of my Grandpa's that had disappeared - I'd never heard him mentioned before that conversation on the front porch, between Dad and his cousin. I am connected here through the Brewer line.

Hi, All! An Introduction by Sue Leffler Kitchen

An Introduction by Sue Leffler Kitchen

Thanks for allowing me to join! I’m descended through the Bruer/Brewer line.  My grandmother, Amanda Marie Brewer, was  the daughter of John Byron Brewer & Anna Mary Erbe.

John Byron Brewer was the son of Harry S. Brewer.  Grandma (Amanda) & Grandpa (Abraham C. Loeb) had ten kids (nine who lived; one still living) and all but two had kids. The family is still growing thanks to the grandkids, great-grands, and in some cases, the g-g-grands of those kids.

Although all of them are interested in what I find, I’m the only one who has actively searched and compiled records & stories. I hope one of them will take up the cause when I’m gone.
