[edit] Source Notes
- John T. Wilson lists the children as: Everett, Charles, Jean, Elva, Kay, Beverly, and Cheryl Wimer.
Paul W. Myers lists the children as: Jean E., Elva S., Beverly J., Vivian K., Charles, Ford, and Cheryl A. Wimer.
We have assumed that "Kay" is Vivian K., which leaves Ford on one list and Everett on the other. This may indicate two different children, but more likely is a first and middle name of the same child.
