  • Notes 
    • Unlike the children born in New York, there is no evidence that Peter and Christina ever lived anyplace in Wisconsin but Fond du Lac. So William and Henry’s birth places are both listed as Fond du Lac. [4]
    • Henry does not appear in the 1870 US Federal Census for Fond du Lac, Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin. Since he would have been too young to have left home, it is likely that he died before the census enumeration. [3]
