Frederick William Johannpeter (1839 – 1915) was my second great grandfather on my mother’s side. He died 4 months before the birth of his grandson, Gilbert P. Ellis, ο οποίος ήταν ο παππούς μου.

1909 ήταν ίσως η χειρότερη χρονιά της ζωής Parker Lonzo Μπατόρ Ζίμερμαν. Έχασε και δέκα μηνών κόρη του Ida Μαΐου Zimmerman και η δεύτερη σύζυγός του Mellie Bollinger Zimmerman. Πριν από το θάνατό της Parker στο Cape Giraurdeau Tornado της 1949, he would bury two more of his children. Both of them were adults. I can only imagine how hard 1909
