Thanks
Our sincere thanks to Mary Renner. Most of the information about Robert and Lydia and their family has come from Mary.
Comment:
Robert’s sister is listed as ‘Laura’ in the 1910 census and ‘Lorins’ in the 1920 census. We believe her name was ‘Lorraine’. She married William J Holden and is found in the 1930 census with one child David, 17.
