His parents' birth year is estimated. He and his second wife were first cousins, both widowed. http://www.hymiestavern.com/Y-G_genealogy/HERSH/chart.htm#c30 and linked pages, notably the text on http://www.hymiestavern.com/Y-G_genealogy/d0/Gast.Hyman.htm#i24

Austro-Hungary (near Krakow, Poland).

₪ Wedding

His first wife died in Europe? There is a logical inconsistency on the original website: "He immigrated to the U.S. in approximately 1909. He was already a widower." and "Hyman Gast and {unknown first wife of Hyman Gast} had the following child: ... Ann Gast was born 1912."

¢ Children

Ann Gast (i26) married Al Keller, who died in 1952. See http://www.hymiestavern.com/Y-G_genealogy/d0/Keller.Al.htm#i98.
