#50990 Ruth Ellen Ensminger ( Ethel Pauline Stouffer • George Carl Stouffer • William Henry Stouffer◊ • Jacob Stouffer◊ )
Other names for Ruth: Ruth Mechling.
Ruth was born 3 Jul 1924 in Pennsylvania. She died 17 Dec 2018 in Crafton, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania.
The names of her children are taken from her obituary, which doesn't distinguish which husband was the father. I've assumed that they are listed in age order and split them after Robert Arbuckle. At the time of her death, she had sixteen grandchildren, twenty-four great-grandchildren, and three great-great-grandchildren.
