• Notes

  Re info from Gerry Kaiser Members of the Schoenforn family have usually been of rather stock build, not too tall; the women often have been heavy-set. A number of the Schoenborns are reported to have had a slight impediment in their speech. the older generation were generally hard-working farmers, often barely managing to eke out a living. A number of the schoenborns apparently had musical talent, at least having the ability to play by ear. 1920 Federal Census for CA, Sacramento Co., Dry Creek Township. Galt Town??. SD 3; ED 75, ward 3349, Sheet 5A, 4th St. Schoenborn, John Head. Rents, Male, white, 33, married, can read and write, b. Il, both parents b.

IL In the CA birth index, I found the following: Schoenborn, Raymond J. b. 25 Feb., 1920, male, Sacramento County, Mother's maiden name: Letter Bernard, b. 25 April, 1924, Male, San Mateo Co., Mother's maiden name, Letter Lloyd , b. 21 Sept., 1922, male, San Mateo County, mother's Maiden name, Letter In the 1930 Census, Raymond is living with John Letter and his wife in St. Louis In the 1930 Census for IL, Logan co., Lincoln, Louella Sanborn, age 12, is living in the Illinois Institute for Feeble-Minded Children. In 1930, the following Schoenborn children are living in St. John's orphanage: Edward, age 8 Bernard, age 6 Leroy, age 3 This makes me think that John Schoenborn is either dead or very ill, and that hilda had to place out her children. She was alive in 1935 -- re Belleville City directory.
