Outagamie, Wi..Stedman Witter, Helen and 10 kids born 1910 thru 1928
Hello, Any information on Stedman b.1888 who may have moved to Wisconsin from somewhere in Pa and Helen b.1890...- would be wonderful! The 10 kids are reported to be from a census as follows-
Harry b. 1910
Florence b. 1911
Dorothy b. 1913
Edward b. 1915
William b. 1916
Leonard b. 1920
Raymond b. 1922
Emil b. 1924
Richard b. 1926
Betty Jane b. 1928
I believe I have the reported year of deaths for all the male Witter children of Stedman and Helen except William and Emil. I know nothing about anyone's marital status, children and etc except for one of the children. I know nothing about the females at all.
I am helping a friend gather any information possible on his family without being intrusive to any surviving family. Apparently there may have been some type of strife between the siblings- its nature unknown to my friend. It is natural to be curious of one's roots but there is no intention to cause anyone any problems.
It is believed that Stedman worked on the rail road...possibly a Canadian one. The family lived at some point near an Indian reservation and moved to Appleton at another point.
It is believed at least 3 brothers served in WWII, one flying gliders, one building docks...as perhaps an engineer and another who operated a Stuart tank and for sometime lived on the land...separated from his unit until rediscovered during the Battle of the Bulge.
This is about all the knowledge known. If anyone can illuminate anything more on this particular Witter family, it would be greatly appreciated. Jennifer
