    Declaration of Intention #66411 on 8 Dec 1896, B80, p297 Naturalized on 18 Mar 1903 in Chicago, IL

    OCCUPATION:
    1910 - laborer in furniture factory

    OBIT: Ignatz' obituary mentions the following daughters-in-law but I am unsure which of his sons married which of these women except for George. Lottie, Anna, Helen, and Bernadette (George's wife). Lottie might be Charles', Anna might be Joseph's, and Helen might be Frank's if they were listed in exactly the same order as the sons names were in the obit.
