Bash’s first cousin, Ethel Bash, was married to Ervin Cookson, a nephew of Charles Cookson. Together, Ervin and Ethel Bash Cookson owned and operated a popular restaurant in Roseville, Ohio. Ervin’s Cookson’s father, Alfred B. Cookson, Sr., brother of the Columbus Superintendent, asked the latter to hire the young Herb Bash. In the late-1950’s, I went to an informal “reunion” at the Beechwold Restaurant that brought together Herb Bash, Ethel Bash Cookson, my maternal grandfather, Alfred B. Cookson, Jr., and their families.
