    Notes 
    • Gerald was married 6 times. Twice to Queenie. But I do not remember his wives' names.
      He died on our farm 10 miles from Eatonville, Washington. The farm fronted Kreger Lake. And he was staying in one of our cabins while he worked at the saw mill in Eatonville. He died of an heart attack.
