One of the daughters of John and Mary Ida (WOLF) STOVER was Elasta Gustava STOVER who married Ray Y. Grube. So far, I have been unable to locate photos of her. She was born Feb. 1, 1897 and died Feb. 3, 1973. She is memorial #99097373 on Find A Grave. What I have found (for no reason I can figure out) is that she got 2 delayed birth certificates, one in 1942 and one in 1957. 1957 Delayed birth certificate: 1957 pg. 1 1957 pg. 2 The people affirming her birth are Lizzie Mull, Irwin Hahn, and B. Sylvester Stover: Elizabeth "Lizzie" MULL was a maternal aunt (younger sister of Mary Ida Wolf). Irwin (or Irvin) HAHN was the son of Mary Ida Wolf and Jacob Hahn - hence a half brother to Elasta. B(arton) Sylvester STOVER was a full brother of Elasta G. STOVER. The 1942 delayed birth certificate: 1942 page 1 1942 page 2 The people affirming her birth are Mrs. T. APPLEBACH, Mrs. T.J. GEIST, and Mrs. Howard MULL. Mrs. T.
