Census Record
Object ID:
2018.104Description:
This is the first census I have found with John Heinz, father of Val.For this census, I was able to fill in the tree and ended up following Fred to Oklahoma and have most of his family from obits. Found Frances (Baumgart) and her family, Ida Breach/Steinke and her family. All stuff I never had before. Val's brother, Joe (Joseph), is the only missing piece, but I got his name off of this....

Catherine Eshuber. I have never found the last name Eshuber so I pretty sure that is wrong. I did find on Fred's marriage certificate the name Catherine Aschakie as the mother. Yet I can not find that name either. May be a mystery for some time.
