Date of death is given as 7 June 1921, but in the physicians statement section, he certifies that he attended her from 7 June to 9 June 1921 and that he last saw her alive on 9 June. Burial date is given as 15 June 1921, so the death date given by Elaine Schoelzel (14 June 1921) is almost certainly incorrect. Age at death is given as 63 years, 3 months, and 23 days, which would put her birth on 12 Feb 1855 (given 7 June 1921 death). According to 1900 census, Anna had given birth to 8 children, of which 5 were surviving. A son named Robert, born in May 1880 is listed, which doesn’t match any other source. Illinois Statewide Marriage Index lists surname as “Oessmann.”

Notes:

Called “Charlie Boy” by his mother. Loved baseball.

Forced to leave high school when his father lost his business in 1917 (1940 census lists his education level as H-3, meaning he completed his junior year). He had plans of attending the University of Illinois, but instead he entered the workforce to help support the family. Never did complete his formal education.

In Denver, he worked for Lyons and Johnson collecting rents, but soon after developed a rheumatic condition so painful that he could not walk. The condition was cured by a tonsillectomy (likely to have been rheumatic fever). Re-entered the job market, but resigned from many jobs because they failed to challenge him. Sought a position as a typist despite a lack of typing skills. Received a quick lesson from his uncle (Frank Knuth) and got the job! Remained until his retirement from the company (which became Van Schaack and Company) as Vice President. Working as an “insurance clerk” in January of 1920.

After marrying Lona, lived with his mother and sister for a short time.
