There appears to be a number of Robert A Walps. Where was your grandfather born and what was his approx date of birth. Who did he marry?

Robert A Walp was born in Lehighton PA and died in ALLETOWN in 1970. I'm trying to find his ancestors. Thank you

My grandmother was Blanche Ott.

This looks like Robert with his parents in 1900
