Biography

Albert J. is listed as John Albert or John A. in the earliest records located so far. I have yet to get beyond the 1910 census for him to find what his LNAB was or anything about his biological parents.

He was adopted by John Andrew and Catherine sometime between 1900 and 1910. See John Andrew and Catherine's 1900^[1] and their family tree^[2] for additional information about them.

Albert stayed connected to his adoptive parents and signed as the informant on his adoptive father's death certificate.

I have not located a marriage record for Dorabelle & Albert. It is noted as 1919 at their FaGR memorials and that date fits with all known data collected so I will use it until an actual record is located.
