Contributed by Dr. Anthony L. Troha: Their son's name is unique, so a Google Books search found him listed in a 1926 Owosso, Michigan city directory, where he was the "Secretary-Treasurer" of the Owosso Produce Company. A search of Ancestry.com, finds him being recorded in several censuses (1880, 1900, 1910, 1930) and a telephone directory listing for him, which tells us how he moved around the country through the years, that his wife's name was "Blanche D.", and that he was born around 1868 or 1869.
