Hello Carol,
What a thoughtful person you are! I really appreciate your going to so much trouble in locating all this data.
The JOHN DOSCHER who married ELIZA KEENAN in 1880, though, has to be a different man (even tho' he was born same year in Germany), since ELIZA died in 1928. On the 1900 census of San Francisco, JOHN F.C. DOSCHER is listed with dau CATHERINE and he's shown as "widowed." I do have dau KATHERINE's death certificate; she was born Feb 1881 Fort Custer, Montana; married JOHN WIKANDER (don't know when/where); died San Francisco 1945; parents names on death cert: JOHN F C DOSCHER and LULU BINGHAM. I REALLY appreciate the death date of JOHN F C DOSCHER (7 Oct 1917), and although he is not shown on the San Francisco National Cemetery listing, having the death date is super. He is shown on Probate Records, and I've inquired at Sutro Library about an obituary. I really would like to find out if JOHN & LULU had other children. I think LULU must be the dau LUCY F, child of CHARLES MORTIMER BINGHAM. What had thrown me off for so long is that on KATHERINE'S death certificate, it shows her mother was born in Maine; that's where I've been looking for LULU!However, I've not been able to find a marriage record for LULU/LUCY and JOHN F C DOSCHER anywhere! Thank you again for all your help; will certainly follow up on some of the trails.
