Erma was the daughter of John Basil Sawistowsky and Mary Alice Miller. John was born at sea, to parents from Germany.
I’d assume her great-great-grandfather John Sawistowsky was of Polish or Jewish descent. She also has German, Scottish, and Dutch ancestry, to varying degrees, as well.

John Sawistowsky was the son of August Sawistowsky and Albertina Golloway or Reich. August’s parents were Adam Sawistowsky and Eleonore Kleinschmidt. Maybe there’s some distant Polish ancestry.
