Note

Note: Johannes was called John or Johnnie by friends and family. He was also called 'the Dutchman' by friends and neighbors due to his German accent. While on his way to boot camp for WW I, the train he was on turned around and returned to St. Louis because the war had ended. John and Helen have a joint tombstone at Ressurection Cemetery in Affton, next to St. Louis in Missouri.

John and Helen were married at the recreation hall of St. George Catholic Church, because the church itself was under construction.
