  • Notes 
    • According to his daughter, Helen (genealogist - Ref her record for more info), he had no middle name. Also, according to Helen, his second wife was named Freda. She does not list the name of his first wife. (David H. Drollinger)

      He is identified as "John D Drollinger" in the 1900 Census indicating he did have a middle name or it was a mistake on the part of the census taker.
