    Notes 
    • His obituary notice states that he had 13 children, seven of whom were living (in 1940). One of the thirteen is known to be a still born infant of 18 Oct 1922, daughter of Minty (ERNST) TOMPKINS, who dies the next day. So the other 12 must belong to Lottie HUBLEY. This also means that Elise and Effie cannot be the same person, as daughter Olive dies in 1926 and s0 both Effie and Elsie are needed to bring the count of living children up to seven. [Bob H]

  • Notes 
    • Her father's 1940 obit states that she is the wife of Churchill TUFTS, but the 2019 obit of her son Mearl Philip FRANK states that he is the s/o Curtis FRANK. My guess is that Minnie had a short-lived marriage to [or other relationship with] Churchill TUFTS. Also, Glenwood MOSSMAN and Garnet KAIZER are listed as "brothers" in the obit for son Mearl, plus Garnet is listed as a "brother" in the obit for sister Elva.
