David and Kent,
I found this query so interesting and the results so great.It is what we do for our "friends" in genealogy.I was doing a search when there comes Kent's reply.I can only add that in 1900 census the father was listed as a boarder who was born in 1864 in Iowa with parents from Germany.He was listed as a boat "puller" or that is what we could read.The brother, Seymour, was born on 5 Sept 1908 and passed away in Nov. 1977 in Clatsop county.
As a former violin player this was a heartwarming story.
