'Lee' was named Leo Adam Trefzger at birth, but the WW1 Draft, the 1920 and 1930 Census and the California Death Index all show his name as Lee or Lee A. Trefzger.
Lee married Eleanora Best who was born in Newcastle on Tyne, England. They had 2 children: 'Ed' Edwin and Eleanora.
From Federal census records we know:
In 1900 Leo (7) was at home in Dayton, OH with his family.
In 1910 Leo (17) was at home with his family in Los Angeles, CA.
In 1920 Lee lived in L.A. district 72, L.A., CA with his wife and son Edwin.
In 1930 Lee lived in Inglewood, L.A., CA with his wife, son Edwin (12) & Eleanora (7).
Comment and Thanks
Early in the study we had known about John Trefzger from Stewart Trefzger and from the 1900 and 1910 census, but we had not been able to find any descendants.
Then in October 1995 Lucille Trefzger (Ed’s wife) from Oregon contacted me and gave me information about Ed’s family. She also gave me names of a few other people to contact. Ann Stadler provided info about Barbara Trefzger’s family. Gary Collier filled us in on ‘Deanie” Albertina Trefzger Meyer’s family. Amy Hageman sent more on Barbara Trefzger Stadler’s family. In 2002 Anna Mae Daum and Mariann Link gave us info about Louisa Trefzger Daum’s family. In 2009 Gary Collier Sent us wonderful photos.
Our sincere thanks to all of the above.
