KEITH CHARLES REICHARD was born on 9 Sep 1908 at Mellott, Fountain County, Indiana. He was the third of six children, three boys and three girls. He appeared on the census of 1910 at Richland Township, Melott, Fountain County, Indiana. He appeared on the census of 1920 at Union Township, Crawfordsville, Montgomery County, Indiana. He was educated for 2 yrs at Wabash College.

He married GERTRUDE CLAIRE WATKINS, daughter of DANIEL LEWIS (CAP) WATKINS and LOTTIE QUEEN WEBB, on 12 Oct 1929 at Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, at the age of 21. Attendants were Howie and Mary Storz. They had two children, a boy and a girl. A Keith Reichard appears in the 1930 census rooming at 4901 Lake Park Avenue in Chicago. He is 23, born in Indiana, and both of his parents were born in Indiana. This closely fits our Keith. However, our Keith is married in 1930. His wife Gertrude isn't with him in Chicago. She was almost eight months pregnant with their first child. She isn't listed in the census with either of their parents. KEITH was a City Salesman at Swift and Company in 1932 at Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio. He was a Printer at R.R. Donnelley in 1933. He would work there the rest of his life.

Memories from sister Naomi

Ken (Reichard) and Keith Reichard got in trouble because they switched some cookies for cowpies on their grandma Cooper (Cynthia Baily) before a ladies club meeting. Ken Reichard worked himself through college. Kenneth taught Naomi to drive in a 1924? Roadster.^S10

Memories from sister Donna

Our poodle Bo-K would start barking when he heard Keith walking home from a block away.

Kenneth graduated from Wabash College. He played football and was nicknamed ‘Paddock’ - whatever that meant! Ken played guitar with friend Chester Weikel on the local radio station. The program was a ½ hour long and sis Naomi knows more about what years. He was renowned in Montgomery city for his deliverance of Masonic sermons. He and Keith were always considerate and kind. Two wonderful brothers.
