• Notes

  Leo's obituary states he had ten children. Who are the other three that are not currently listed herein? I spoke with Francis on 18 Feb 2022. A very nice fellow. I explained that I was calling him in regards to his father's obituary where it states he was the father of ten children and survived by six. Our research (along with data supplied by Jane Louise Drollinger-Peterson) identifies a total of seven. So, the question for Francis was, who were the three remaining children? Francis explained that that has always been somewhat of a mystery among he and his siblings. He said his parents had a set of twins who died as infants and with no names that anyone was aware of. He said they believe the other child must have been stillborn or died shortly thereafter and also had no name as far as anyone knew. (David H. Drollinger 18 Feb 2022)
