Thanks for the welcome, Robert.In response to your question re: living descendents of William George Joos and Lily, I can only tell you what I find in the Family Record.Mind you, since its publication in 1962, there's been time for about 1.5 more generations to ensue, so you'd have to consult other resources to discover the precise answer.However, here's what's in the Record regarding William and Lily's 2 sons and their offspring as of 1962:
1.Vernon H. Joos, b. Jan, 1901 in Wimbledon, ND and still living at the time of the publication of the Record.He married Myrtle Ann Hunt in Wimbledon on 7/20/1929, and they raised 2 sons:
a.Kenneth Vernon Joos b. 8/13/1930 in Fargo, ND was unmarried as of 1962, working in journalism and public relations and living in San Francisco at 1159 Hyde Street.
b.Allan Erle Joos b. 4/24/39 in Worthington, Minn. and graduated from Union High School, Merced, CA in 1957.He married Peggy Hadley 12/22/61, with no children as of 1962, but maybe by now, some procreation has occurred......
2.W. Wallace Joos b. 1907 in Wimbledon, ND and still living in 1962.He married Mae E. Stoddart 6/21/1934 in Jamestown, ND, and they raised 3 children:
a.Beverly Mae (Joos) Allen, b. 3/30/1936.She and her husband, Eugene Oliver Allen raised one son, Robert L. Allen born 4/23/1961.Would this be you, Robert?
b.Betty Lu (Joos) Groth, b. 2/7/1939.Married Karl Groth 8/5/1961.No children mentioned in the Record, but they were living in Northfield Minn. in 1962 where Karl was a student at St. Olaf College and Betty Lu was teaching elementary school.Perhaps there's a chance this union produced some children and grandchildren by now?
c.William Wyman Joos, b. 9/6/46 who was still a teenager as of the writing of the Record.
I'm guessing there's not much new info in here for you, Robert, but it seems there are some leads here you might want to follow.Anyway, I'm happy I could pass this small bit on to you.Happy hunting!
