• Notes

  Raised by his grandparents Andrew (George) and Minnie McConnell. On the 1920 census, he is listed under their family. His mother may have been Cecilia, age 19, on the 1920 census, but we cannot find any data to support that at this time. She is not listed on the same family's 1925 Kansas census, and we cannot locate her in Findagrave.com. ALO June 6, 2018
