In 2018 when we were reviewing the Trefzger-Bauer Trust distributions (sent to me by Sharon Trefzger Corn (Joe's daughter)) we noticed a distribution of $600.00 to 'King McDermid'.
We did not knot know who 'King McDermid' was, or why he would be geting $600.00 (3 times the size of the next largest distribution).
Sharon put her 'genealogy cap' on, did a lot of research, and came up with the answer.
Here is the answer:
Facts
Emma Schmidt was a daughter of and an heir to Simon Trefzger.
At her death in 1935, Emma's heir was her son Louis Schmidt.
Louis married Kathryn MeDermid in 1913. Louis and Kathryn had no children. Kathryn outlived Louis so she was his heir.
At her death in 1962, Kathryn had no living siblings' so Kathryn's heir was her nephew, King McDermid.
Thanks:
Our special thanks to Sharon Trefzger Corn for all of this info about the McDermids.
