The Jim Trenkle Family Home Page

Just beginning research (11/20/98)Areas of interest: Ancestors of my maternal grandparents: Timothy O'Callaghan who lived in San Francisco during the first half of the 1900s. He died in Richmond, California in the mid-60s. He was married to a Marie(?) Woods who died in the early 30s. They were both born in Ireland (him, for sure - her, maybe), probably County Cork.

Ancestors of my fraternal grandparents: William Edward Trenkle who was living in El Paso, TX in 1914; in Ludlow, CA in the late 20's - early 30's; then in Southern California (principally Inglewood, CA)until his death in Hawthorne, CA in the late 60s. He was married to a woman named Fessler (first name unknown)who died sometime after 1914. I believe they came from either Kansas or Pennsylvania.

Female children of the Trenkle/Fessler union noted above. I believe there were two, in addition to two sons names Edward and Thomas.

Ancestors of William Edward Trenkle's second wife. At the time of their marriage her name was Diffley. Her maiden name was Crimmins (sp?).

Any information would be appreciated. I am also willing to share the information that I have.
