Historical context

These background articles explain the places, work, and events in this entry.

What we still don't know

  • Dates and places of birth and death
  • Occupation and residences
  • Independent confirmation of the listed identity and relationships
  • He is absent from the indexed 1930 household although he was about nine and every one of his eight siblings is present with ages that advance exactly ten years by 1940. The likeliest explanation is a line missed in indexing rather than an absence from the house; the register image would confirm it.
