  1. Robert Lucius Hegnauer Jr.

    1916–1999 H0025

    • "Lucius" (1922 and 1936). The newspaper, its date and page, and which of the five Full-Text images found together it is, remain to be identified.

      Probably online I can help

    • 1935 and 1936. In the 1940 census he gave his residence on 1 Apr 1935 as rural Scott County, Minnesota, not on a farm. Why he was there has not been found. In July 1936 he was "of Minneapolis".

      Probably online I can help

    • Marriage to Adelaide (conflict). No record of the marriage has been found, and the Minnesota Official Marriage System has none for the couple (searched under Hegnauer in all counties, and under Adelaide Curtis). The marriage is recorded as the certificate gives it, and the conflict is unresolved. The Hennepin County marriage records, and the Minneapolis newspapers' lists of marriage licences for Sept 1939 and Sept 1940, have not been searched.

      Probably online I can help

    • Navy service. Every muster-roll line carries his service number, 871 08 48. The discharge date has not been found, and the index of the VA death file gives no service dates.

      Probably online I can help

    • Date of enlistment (conflict; 18 Dec 1943 preferred). Two dates are recorded, both at Minneapolis. (2) 12 Aug 1943: only the index of the Farragut roll of March 1944; its image has not been read.

      Probably online I can help

    • Work. The Kelso–Longview directories give machinist in 1948 and 1957 (index entries; the images have not been read) and Longview Fibre in 1960 (image read); the 1950 census gives machinist in the paper industry. When he left the mill, and when he held the credit-union post, are not known. Other directory entries, not yet read, are listed in the sources.

      Probably online I can help

    • Second marriage, at Reno and in Washington. A companion index entry for Skagit County, dated 19 Mar 1982, has not been opened.

      Probably online I can help

    • Third marriage (probable). His death certificate names his surviving spouse as Doris, maiden name Davis, and his obituary names his wife Doris. No record of it has been found: a search of the Washington marriage records for Robert Hegnauer found only the 1982 marriage, and Oregon and Nevada have not been searched (see her profile).

      Probably online I can help

    • Addresses after 1982. The Puyallup address of the index is not the one on the certificate, and it is undated, so it is not entered as a dated residence; the indexes and the certificate have not been reconciled.

      Probably online I can help

    • Kwajalein entry (reading revised). The Kwajalein entry was first read as repair unit C of the squadron, in the repair ship Luzon, and Ship Repair Unit No. 1; that reading is kept in the fact's note. Whether the line records Robert coming from that command or going to it, and where YRD(M)-7 then lay, the line does not say; the roll's column headings should be read.

    • School director candidate (1958). Whether he was elected, and which community the district served, are not known; the result may be in the paper's issues of 12–13 Mar 1958.

      Wide open I can help

    • Burial. He was cremated on 1 Jul 1999 at Seattle. The date of the interment of his ashes is not recorded; the cemetery's interment register has not been checked.

  2. Christian Hegnauer

    1851–1935 H0007

    • Immigration year. 1856 (passenger list, the 1910 census and the obituary). The 1900 census gives 1855, and the 1930 figure is unclear (probably 1855).

      Probably online I can help

    • 1870 census. Not found (Missouri and Swiss-born searches, 1851 ± 2). His family's 1870 whereabouts are still unknown (see his parents' profiles, Luzius and Anna Margreth).

      Probably online I can help

    • 1920 census. Not found, despite index searches in Oregon and a page-by-page reading of the index transcriptions for Jefferson County E.D. 85 (Kutcher and Metolius precincts, including the town), which have no Hegnauer and no Swiss-born man of 66–72.

      Probably online I can help

    • Marion County tax lists. Ancestry indexes further Salem-directory entries for 1905, 1907, 1908, 1909, 1910 and 1911 that have not been opened.

      Probably online I can help

    • Elizabeth's age and father. Her death certificate and the 1900 census give 3 Sep (Sep) 1864. Her death certificate gives her father only as "unknown Stadler". Rudolf Stadler, 40, the Swiss neighbour in 1880, was probably her father, but his household in 1880 has not been read in full.

      Probably online I can help

    • The 1935 obituary. The Madras Pioneer of February 1935 is not on Newspapers.com and may have a fuller obituary.

      Probably online I can help

    • His mother's death. A member tree's claim that his mother Margreth died on 6 Mar 1897 at "Brienz, Canton Bern" has no source (see her profile).

      Probably online I can help

    • The 1895 Bates County plat. This Christian was living in Oregon by 1891, though a Bates County holding kept after the move cannot be ruled out until the county deed records are searched.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • Homestead. The homestead case file (NARA, RG 49, The Dalles serial 03149) should give the entry date, his proof testimony and his naturalization.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • The Salem farm. The Marion County deeds of 1899 and 1910 and the Dorrance Fruit Farms plat would locate the farm; the A. Stanton donation land claim may locate the earlier farm of 1893–94.

      Needs an archive I can help

  3. Barbara Hegnauer

    1859–1923 H0008

    • The 1870s. She has not been found in the 1870 census. Searches for her name, and for her parents and brother Christian, found nothing.

      Probably online I can help

    • Place of death. The death certificate gives Osage Township, Bates County; "Rich Hill" is typed on the city line and apparently struck through. Earlier versions of her WikiTree profile gave her death year as 1939; no record supports that, and the certificate, both obituaries, the cemetery index and the gravestone all give 1923.

      Probably online I can help

    • Burial. The date, 9 Jan 1923, is inferred, not recorded: the death certificate leaves the burial date blank. The place is recorded at town level, Rich Hill, as on Find a Grave; whether the cemetery lies inside the city limits has not been checked.

      Probably online I can help

    • Children. The 1900 census gives 7 born and 5 living, and the 1910 census 8 born and 6 living. She is therefore probable, not proven; her death notice has not been found. (4) One child who died before June 1900: name, sex and dates unknown.

      Probably online I can help

    • "Barberry". Find a Grave and one member tree give her a middle name "Barberry". It is only the 1880 census's spelling of Barbara, and no record gives her a middle name.

      Probably online I can help

    • The Kamm family. Robert was born in February 1857 (1900 census; the tree gives 2 Feb 1857) at Highland, Illinois (1883 birth registers). That rests only on the surname, Swiss origin and neighbourhood; no record yet links them, and another Kamm ("J. Kamm") also held land there. The other grantors, and whether Barbara was one of them, are not known; the Bates County deed books would show.

      Probably online I can help

    • Church. Both obituaries call her a member of the Reform Church, without naming the congregation. The church of Rev. E. D. Lewis, who conducted her funeral in 1923, has not been identified.

      Probably online I can help

    • An open question. her baptism (1859); the family's whereabouts in 1870; the name of the child who died before 1900, and Anna's death notice (Bates County papers, Sep 1895); whether her aged parents lived with her after 1884 (see her mother's profile); whether her father's pension file (certificate 638,825) contains affidavits by her; and the grantors of the 1890 quitclaim.

      Needs an archive I can help

  4. Robert Lucius Hegnauer

    1887–1969 H0017

    • Birth. 11 Nov 1887 in all the records that give a full date. No birth register entry or baptism has been found; Bates County birth registers of the 1880s and the records of the German Reformed church near Prairie City have not been searched.

      Probably online I can help

    • Military academy. His WWI card records prior service of three years as a "II Lieutenant", infantry, at a Missouri "Mil[itary] Academy". The card image and the history of the Appleton City Academy should be checked.

      Probably online I can help

    • Divorce (the fact certain; date, county and plaintiff from one report). That the marriage ended in divorce is certain: Robert remarried on 22 Nov 1930, and Lotta, the informant, is "divorced" in the 1940 census. Their 1930 residence has not been checked, but they are an unlikely alternative. The divorce file of the Faribault County district court at Blue Earth should name the plaintiff and give the grounds, the decree date and the custody of the two sons.

      Probably online I can help

    • Second marriage. Known only from two indexes (22 Nov 1930, Cass County, North Dakota); the record has not been viewed. It should give Blanche's name at the time.

      Probably online I can help

    • Death and burial. The California death index gives Riverside County, not a town. Banning, his home, is the place given by Find a Grave; the death certificate has not been seen.

      Probably online I can help

    • 1911 Illio. An Ancestry yearbook index entry, "R L Hegnauer", 1911 Illio, "Ag Club, members", links to a page (p. 233) that does not show him, so it has not been used.

      Probably online I can help

    • Not him. The 1895 plat of Pleasant Gap Township, "L. Hegnauer" in Sec. 36, is his father's farm. A member tree gives his father's name as "Leonhard C Hegnauer"; no record supports the "C".

      Probably online I can help

    • The originals. His marriage licence and wedding notice, the 1916 university directory, both draft cards, the 1930 divorce report, the 1936 Wells Mirror page, the 1961 city notice and his obituary were read on the images. The North Dakota marriage of 1930 is known only from indexes.

      Probably online I can help

  5. Leonhard Hegnauer

    1843–1916 H0003

    • Move to Bates County. 1869 (county history, Rockville Booster). A BLM search by legal description (Sec. 36 T39N R30W; Sec. 1 T38N R30W) has not yet been made. A Bates County deed of 1869, found by FamilySearch's full-text search, shows him buying land jointly with Anton Hammer from Thomas J. Garrison for $600, followed by quitclaims between Hammer and Hegnauer in 1871–72, which supports the county history's purchase; its legal description has not been read.

      Probably online I can help

    • Bates County records (FamilySearch Full-Text, 27 Sep 2026). Only the machine transcriptions have been read, and the nine pages have not yet been matched one by one to these documents. The deed books would give the legal descriptions and may show how he came to own 405 acres.

      Probably online I can help

    • Children. In 1900 Susan was the mother of 7 children, 5 living. The second is unknown. An Emil Hegnauer, born 1870, has a Find a Grave memorial (78556009) in the Reform Cemetery with no marker; he is not in the Aug 1870 or 1880 censuses, and he is a possibility only.

      Probably online I can help

    • Christian's birth. 3 May 1868 (county history and Find a Grave; the 1870 census age 2 and the 1880 census age 11 both point to 1868) against 3 May 1867 in his 1957 death certificate and obituary. Her exact date, 18 Dec 1866, is from the family tree only; her 1920 death certificate should be checked.

      Probably online I can help

    • Pension file. Invalid certificate 1,097,644 and widow's certificate 851,144 (NARA, RG 15). The file, which holds the 1917 duplicate marriage certificate and the physician's death certificate, would give his own statements about his service and family. It has not yet been examined.

      Probably online I can help

    • A lead. Other November 1916 obituaries are unread: the Republican Press (Butler) 10 Nov, the Bates County Democrat 9 and 16 Nov, the Butler Daily Democrat 6 and 13 Nov, the original Rockville Booster, and the St. Clair County Republican.

      Probably online I can help

    • Susanna's death date. The gravestone photo seems to read "12. A sharper photograph of the stone would settle the reading.

      A relative may know I can help

    • Mary's death year. An annotated copy of the family photo gives 1918; family trees give 27 Apr 1920. Her own records have not yet been examined.

      A relative may know I can help

    • A lead. The family-photo description calls him "brother-in-law of Elizabeth", which fits Elizabeth (Stadler) Hegnauer, wife of his brother Christian; its recorded provenance is a Stadler relative in Switzerland, so it probably descended in her Swiss family (unconfirmed).

      A relative may know I can help

    • Three-month service in 1861 (Home Guard, probable). The county history says he served three months in 1861 before the 4th Missouri, and the 1890 schedule gives his enlistment as 16 Jun 1861 (against 14 Oct 1861 in his service record). That makes this candidate probable; only the machine transcriptions have been read, and the cards give no dates. His pension file may settle the question.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • "C. Hegnauer" in 1895. The Pleasant Gap plat shows a "C. Hegnauer 80" in Section 36, near the German Reformed church, with Anton Hammer's strip between it and Leonhard's 80 acres. The holder is therefore almost certainly Leonhard's son Christian (27, married, later on the home place), although land kept by the brother after his move cannot be ruled out until the Bates County deeds are searched.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • A lead. The St. Clair County probate of 1916–17 has not been searched.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • Bank of Rockville. The Rockville Booster says he was vice president until the death of J. C. Laughlin, then president, in 1911. Laughlin may have returned as president later; bank reports would settle it.

      Wide open I can help

    • The originals. His Swiss baptism is from FamilySearch's index of the Igis Reformed registers; the image has not been viewed. His Home Guard cards and the Bates County deed, probate and tax records are known only from FamilySearch Full-Text machine transcriptions.

      Probably online I can help

  6. Luzius Hegnauer

    1819–aft. 1890 H0001

    • Gasconade County land (FamilySearch Full-Text, 27 Sep 2026). Only the machine transcriptions have been read, not the images. The deeds by which they bought the land have not been found. Peter Krattly, one of the 1860 creditors, shares the surname of the Swiss family near Hermann into which Christina married about 1869 (her husband was Sylvester Krattly; see her profile); whether the two were related is not known. Which civil township Sec. 23, T44N, R5W lies in has not been checked on a map; the family was enumerated in Boeuf Township in 1860.

      Probably online I can help

    • Descriptive book (two readings). The descriptive-book card read on Fold3 gives his birthplace as "Igis Switzerland". The machine transcription probably dropped the short, unfamiliar word; the two images should be compared to confirm the Igis reading.

      Probably online I can help

    • After the sale of the farm (1869–1880). Christina was "of this county" (Gasconade) when she married Sylvester Krattly ("Kraettly" in his obituary) in 1869. The family is still unfound in 1870.

      Probably online I can help

    • 1870 census. Not found. Index searches under every variant in Bates, Gasconade, St. Clair and Madison (Illinois) counties found neither parent, nor Christian (about 19) or Barbara (about 11), who were presumably still living with them. Not yet read: the counties next to Bates (St. Clair, Henry, Vernon, Cass) and to Gasconade (Osage, Maries, Franklin, Warren, Montgomery), St. Louis, and the rest of Madison County.

      Probably online I can help

    • 1884 directory. It gives his birthplace as Germany and his birth year as 1813 (his wife 1815), and his wife's maiden name as "M. Barnett". A possible namesake is his elder brother Leonhard, baptised at Igis on 14 Jun 1812 (fate unknown), who would fit "1813" better.

      Probably online I can help

    • Johannes's birth year. Two index entries of Johannes's Igis baptism give 13/14 November 1840, but a third (FamilySearch record 6F8C-G3LN) gives 13/14 November 1839, which is before his parents' marriage in June 1840. This is probably an indexing error; the register image has not yet been checked.

      Probably online I can help

    • Affidavit of 1864 (probable). Only the machine transcription has been read; the whole file may name the deponent's residence.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • Land in Bates County. The 1895 plat's "L. Hegnauer 80" in Sec. 36, Pleasant Gap, is attributed to Leonhard, not Luzius. The Bates County deed books would name all the grantors.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • Death. Not found. He was alive on 15 Jul 1890, when he applied for a pension. The best lead is his pension file (NARA RG 15, invalid certificate 638,825), which should record when he was dropped from the rolls at death.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • Home Guard (probable). The cards give no age, residence or dates, and only the machine transcriptions have been read, so the service is probable, not proven.

      Wide open I can help

    • The originals. His Swiss records are from FamilySearch's index of the Igis Reformed registers; the register images have not been viewed. His Gasconade County land, the 1858 marriage certificate, the Home Guard cards and the 1864 affidavit are known only from FamilySearch Full-Text machine transcriptions, not from the images.

      Probably online I can help

  7. Christian Hegnauer

    1868–1957 H0010

    • Birth year (conflict). 3 May 1868 is given by the 1918 county history and Find a Grave, May 1868 by the 1900 census, and his age of 2 in Aug 1870 fits only 1868. Earlier notes rejected 1867 because his sister Mary Christina was born on 18 Dec 1866; that date comes from the family tree and has not been checked against her own records, so it is not relied on here.

      Probably online I can help

    • Marriage. Only index entries have been seen. He was eighteen, so the licence may record his father's consent; the register should be read.

      Probably online I can help

    • Occupations in 1930 and 1940. The indexes read "manager" (1930) and "Bouling Egg" (1940); the second is probably a misreading, perhaps of a poultry-and-egg business. The images should be read.

      Probably online I can help

    • Burial. The death certificate's "Eddie [?] Cemetery, Prairie City" has not been matched; Find a Grave places both Christian and Anna in the Prairie City Cemetery.

      Probably online I can help

    • Unexplained entry. FamilySearch's Find a Grave index has a "Christopher H. Hegnauer" (born 1853, died 23 Aug 1943) buried at Prairie City, and Ancestry's Bates County cemetery index a "Christopher H. Hegnaur" (1853–1943, Zion Lutheran). The entry is not this Christian, who died in 1957, and it should be checked against the cemetery.

      Probably online I can help

    • A lead. the 1920 census (not yet found for Christian and Anna); the Bates County deed records for Sec. 36, T39N R30W; the 1886 marriage register; a fuller obituary in the Butler papers of Sept 1957.

      Probably online I can help

    • The county history's sketch. Only the parts of pp. 719–721 about his father and mother, and the note on the Reformed Church, have been abstracted. The sketch should be read again for Christian's own farm and family.

      Wide open I can help

    • The originals. His death certificate and his wife's were read on the images. The census facts come from the Ancestry tree's attached records and the FamilySearch indexes, and his marriage from indexes; those images have not been read.

      Probably online I can help

  8. Keith Donnell Hegnauer

    1945–2014 H0027

    • Birth file number. Ancestry's copy of the Minnesota birth index gives the state birth file number, 1945-MN-049680, with both parents' full names; the certificate itself has not been viewed.

      Probably online I can help

    • Washburn High School (probable, a lead). Ancestry's yearbook index lists a Keith Hegnauer, about 16, in the 1961 and 1962 yearbooks of Washburn High School, Minneapolis. But nothing on the entries names his parents, and the pages have not been viewed, so his schooling there is not entered as a fact. (His mother lived at St. Paul in 1950; where the family lived in the 1950s is not yet known.)

      Probably online I can help

    • Birthplace (probable). The birth index gives Otter Tail County; FamilySearch indexes the place as "Ottertail, Otter Tail", which may be its reading of the county or the small city of Ottertail. The certificate would settle the town.

      Probably online I can help

    • Death place (probable). Find a Grave gives Ettrick, Trempealeau County, Wisconsin, as the family tree does; Ettrick is the village next to Blair, where he lived. No death record has been read; his Wisconsin death record and the obituary behind the GenealogyBank entry (not yet read) should confirm it.

      Probably online I can help

    • Marriages. His first wife is living under the study's rule (born about 1936, no death record read) and is not named. The old family tree attaches to her an obituary index entry of 2014, which has not been read; when it (or another death record) is read, she can be named here. The date of his marriage to Mary Lee Hayles has not been found; it was after his divorce in Sep 1972, and probably before the birth of their daughter in 1976.

      Probably online I can help

    • The originals. No record image has been read for him, and his Find a Grave memorial page, which has a biography, has not been viewed.

  9. Johannes Hegnauer

    1840–1917 H0002

    • Service record. His compiled service record (NARA M405) was read card by card on Fold3 on 26 Sep 2026. The pension file (filed 19 Aug 1890) has not been read.

      Probably online I can help

    • Rejected lead, the 2nd Missouri Infantry "John Hegnauer". This profile formerly cited the FamilySearch entry "Missouri, Civil War Service Records of Union Soldiers, 1861–1865", John Hegnauer, 1861 (FamilySearch record FFB2-WYJ), as a copy of John's cavalry record. The National Park Service card "Hegnauer, John", private, Co. B, 2nd Missouri Infantry, and the FamilySearch Civil War Soldiers Index entry for a "John Hegnauer" of Missouri (F9Y7-TP8), which has the same spelling, probably belong to the same man (not checked).

      Probably online I can help

    • Second marriage and Lawton. The 1900 census gives 1882 as the year of his marriage to Mary, but he was already with a wife Mary in 1880. But the 1880 census gives his wife Mary's birth as about 1845, and the 1900 census as Mar 1845 (as abstracted in the family tree; not yet checked against the image), four years later than the Lawton gravestone.

      Probably online I can help

    • Burial. The VA gravesite index gives Section 33, Row 7, Site 19; the burial register gives the grave as "33-5792-5". The two numbering forms have not been reconciled against the register image, which may also give the burial date.

      Probably online I can help

    • Identity. The records are linked as one man as follows. His pension file, which should settle it, has not been read. The Home register's residence before admission and next of kin have not yet been extracted; they would test the links to Webb City and Lawton.

      Needs an archive I can help

    • Enlistment and muster-in. The National Homes register says he enlisted at St. Louis on 18 Sep 1861. His own day of enrollment is not known, so the military fact starts in Aug 1861.

      Wide open I can help

    • Presence at his company's engagements. He is present on 17 of the 18 bi-monthly muster rolls (Aug 1861 to Aug 1864). Tupelo (14–15 Jul 1864): presence unknown. The regiment is not in the Tupelo reports, but he may have been with a detachment under Smith, who led that expedition.

    • Catharine. Family trees give her death as 24 Oct 1876 at Highland and her birth as 20 Apr 1847 at Baltimore, Maryland, without a record. The Highland Evangelical church burials have not been searched.

    • Son Carl Lucius (born 1872). Known only from family trees (born Feb 1872). His later life is unknown; the Appel family researcher also lost track of him.

  10. Madlena Krädtli

    c. 1722–aft. 1762 H1023

    • "Ma Anna" (1762). at the last baptism she is indexed "Ma Anna Kretler". The surname is hers, so this is taken to be a misreading of Madlena, not a second wife of Nutt; the image should be checked.

      Probably online I can help

    • Burial (possible only; downgraded from probable, 27 Sep 2026). Magdalena Krättlen was buried at Igis on 28 Oct 1774, aged 52; the index names no spouse. The image (DGS 8014188_002, image 370) should decide it: it may name a husband.

A Magdalena, one of twins (her sister Elssbeth was baptised the same day), was baptised at Igis on 16 Jan 1722, the parents indexed as Jacob "Bartli" and Margreth "Dacher". In each entry the mother's surname looks like a misreading of Däscher, which would give Jacob Krädtli children in 1719, 1722 (the twins) and 1725. The image (DGS 8014188, folder 002) should be read.

The Igis marriage index has entries for 1742, 1743 (six) and 1744 (four), none for 1745 and only one for 1746 (another couple, 26 Jan 1746); the Zizers marriages of 1743–1748 are indexed, and none has a Hegnauer groom. The marriage probably falls in a gap in the index, or in the register itself; the 1745 images (DGS 8014188, folder 002) should be read. The bride's surname looks like the "Krädlenen" form of 1760, but the groom belongs to the Zizers Ostermeyer family and no Ostermeyer children follow; the image should be checked.

    • Identity. "Tulla", 3, in 1910 and "Tulla D.", 13, in 1920 are the same boy: the second son of James and Lucy Wilson in both households, with the same brothers and sisters. His Social Security record or military personnel file would name his parents.

    • Name. The spelling Willson is the 1920 census's, and the Ancestry tree follows it; he was Wilson at his death, as his father was in every other record. The middle name Daniel has not been found in a record read so far.

    • Military service. The gravesite index gives M/Sgt, U.S. Air Force, World War II and Korea, with service dates 9 Nov 1960 – 30 Sep 1961, which can only be his last period of service (he was 54 then). His enlistment records (WWII Army enlistment file) and his Air Force service have not been searched.

    • Wife. Emelia E. Arsenault is named in the titles of two photographs attached to him in the Ancestry tree, whose contributor calls him her husband, and the old family tree attaches the index of her obituary (The Spokesman-Review, 5 Jun 1991), which gives her birth about 1914 at Yakima, her death on 3 Jun 1991 at Gladstone, Oregon, and her spouse Tulla Wilson; the index and the page have not been re-read here. Their marriage record (Washington or elsewhere, before about 1947) has not been found.

    • Absent from his family. He was not in his parents' household in April 1930, and he is not among the brothers and sisters named in his brother Woodrow's obituary in 1966, although he was then living. He has not been searched for in the censuses of 1930 to 1950.

  6. Berenice E. Burger

    1903–1998 H0078

    • The household with Lotta D. Hegnauer. In April 1950 Lotta D. Hegnauer lived in Berenice's household, and the census gives her relationship to the head as "partner". Whether they shared a home before or after 1950 has not been checked in Berenice's own directory entries.

      Probably online I can help

    • Birth (corrected). 21 Jun 1903 (Social Security Death Index), which fits her age of 46 in April 1950; the family tree's 21 Jun 1904 was a year out. The tree's birthplace, Fullerton, Nance County, is not in any record read (the Death Index gives none); the 1930 census entry (age and birthplace) has not been read.

    • Death and burial. The Social Security Death Index gives 7 Jan 1998, with her last residence at Puyallup, as the family tree has it. The tree cites Find a Grave memorial 244808037 for her burial in New Tacoma Cemetery; the memorial has not been viewed.

    • The originals. Her 1950 census entry was read on the image in the survey of Lotta Hegnauer's records, and Adelaide Hegnauer's 1995 obituary on the newspaper page. Her birth and death dates come from the Social Security Death Index (read 27 Sep 2026); her burial rests on the family tree's citation of Find a Grave, which has not been viewed.

    • Death. 23 Sep 2005 (Social Security record, Find a Grave). Find a Grave's "Grays Harbor City" may be the old locality of that name near Hoquiam or an error for the county; the Washington death index (2005) should settle it.

Next steps: the 1860 census of Crawford County, which should show John and Martha J. Chandler with Thomas, George, James and the younger children; the Crawford County marriage record of 1850; the 1880 image, whose marital-status column would show whether M. J. Chandler was a widow; and Crawford County probate or guardianship papers for John Chandler's minor children, or his Civil War service, if any.

Ancestry's 1930 index was searched for Ella Phillips born about 1863, for Frank Phillips with a wife Ella, and for Sarah Phillips born about 1863, with no match in Benton, McDonald or Cass counties. Frank's death and burial have not been found.

    • Children (conflict). In 1900 she had borne five children, all living, and all five were at home. In 1910 her line reads "3" born and "3" living, which is wrong: five had been born by 1900, and at least four (James, William, Mattie and Bertha) were alive after 1910; Nancy has not been traced after 1900.

The county has not been proven: his parents married in Benton County on 21 July 1881 (the county marriage record, read on FamilySearch; see his father's profile), and a family tree places the births of his next brother and sister at Robinson, Benton County, but it cites no record.

James has not been found in the 1940 census: searches of Ancestry's index for James Wilson and James I. Wilson, born 1880–1884, living in Washington (with and without Missouri or Arkansas as birthplace), and of FamilySearch's index for James Wilson born 1880–1884 in Grays Harbor County, found no candidate.

    • Parents (probable, not proven). Her death certificate names her father as John Harris, born in Arkansas, and gives her mother's maiden name as "No Record"; the informant was her daughter. Ann is taken to be Lucy's mother because she had been John's wife for thirty years in 1900 and had borne eleven children; the census does not say so directly, and an eighteen-year-old "stepson" in a thirty-year marriage is unexplained, so that line of the image should be read again.

    • Maiden name. Unknown. Lucy's death certificate answers "No Record". A marriage record of about 1870 (Benton County or a neighbouring county of Arkansas, Missouri or the Indian Territory) would give it.

    • An earlier household. In the 1880 census of Sulphur Springs, Rohema A. Harris, 32, born in Georgia, is the wife of John R. D. Harris, 40, with children whose names may match those of 1900 (Jeremiah, 2, and perhaps "Ruther W." and "James D."). Her age (about 1848) does not fit Ann's October 1844, and the family has not been linked.

    • A lead. the registers of the parish of Barycz (Brzozów district), through Geneteka and the Przemyśl diocesan archives, for his marriage to Antonina Pomykał and for Małgorzata's baptism (1886). "No sign that he followed" rests only on the absence of any record so far; the passenger lists after 1907 have not been searched for him.

    b. c. 1916 H0100

    • Death (conflict; both unsourced; neither accepted). The Ancestry tree gives 21 Apr 1983 at Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri, with no citation. Conclusion: her death is unknown. She may have died young, in Oklahoma between 1920 and about 1923, when the state's registration was incomplete, or on Grays Harbor under another spelling; or she may have been living away from her parents in 1930 and married later, which would explain her absence from Woodrow's obituary under the name Wilson.

The indexes (the Washington death records usually give the parents' names) and the death certificate, which the Washington State Digital Archives hold, should be read to confirm it and to give his exact birth date, the cause of death and his burial.
