  • Notes 
    • While I have not seen his marker, I am told that it states a DOB of 13 Apr 1885. However, this appears to be impossible beCAUSe, from the SPAH register, we know that his sister, Ellen Salome was b. 24 Feb 1885. His obituary notice, however, says that he died 11 May 1977 at age 93, which would place his birth in 1884. It is also possible that one of these children was adopted. [Bob H]
