Florida Lassings/Lossings
Hello there,
I just recently found this surname while researching my family tree. My maternal grandmother's first cousin is/was FLORENCE [nee PRICE] LASSING/LOSSING b. 30 JUN 1904. I have several letters from Florence to my grandmother but I can't tell from her handwriting or my grandmother's if the first vowel in Florence's married surname is an "a" or an "o". The last letter I have was written in 1990. Most of the Lassing/Lossing family info was from a letter written in 1978 (I will assume many more offspring arrived between 1978 and 2006). Any help would be appreciated! THANKS in advance!
Best Wishes,
Kati McSweeney
