  	The obit of Colin Frank ATWELL lists 13 Siblings, 10 of whom are known to be the children of Allen and Eliza (FAULKNER) ATWELL, who dies in 1909. The other three--Idus, Marie, and Myrtle--do not appear in the 1911 or 1921 censuses, so it would appear that they are the children of Allen and Lauretta (CASEY) ATWELL since Lauretta is a spinster when she marries Allen.
