Notes:
There were 23 children total. I have located the above plus Gertrude,  b.abt 1902. I was told that only 16 lived past infancy.
Children Florence through Gertrude emigrated with parents in 1904. "Aunt Louisa" is a memory of her nephew who was born in Iowa; if she emigrated it would have been under a married name.
