Note: From Fleming, Nan 1999. Email correspondence: Pop made wonderful things for me when I was little: a doll cradle, a trunk for doll clothes, but best of all was my doll house. It had two floors, a gravel driveway and garage, a yard, the front door opened. I wanted to save it, but dad had it in the garage rafters and it became terribly mildewed (a word?) so we had to throw it away. Haven't thought about that for a long while. Though, I do remember dad every day, I miss him so very much. I (MRH) also have items made by Pop Bauer. These include a wooden bird cage which houses a small, colorful, wooden parrot. I have a round ottoman, two feet high and three feet wide which Pop made from the discarded slat top from a roll top desk. This was my toy box when I was a child. I used to own a blanket chest made from the doors of the old Cincinnati Post Office. U. S. Census 1920 En. Dist: 243, Sheet 10. Date: 12 and 12 Jan 1920 Name listed as Victor T. Bauer Resided at Hyatt or Wyatt (Can't read for sure) Avenue. James and Bertha Fishwick resided at 1859 Hyatt Ave. and they are listed next to Bauers. Under house number only an X is listed. Home was owned and free of mortgage. Age is 45 at last birthday. This makes birth year circa 1874. Occupation listed as Post Office Clerk. U. S. Census 1930 Family is no longer listed on Hyatt Avenue. The neighbors, e.g., Mills, Fishwick are shown. World War I registration card lists precise birthdate. Also Theodor indicates his heiight as medium, hair light, eyes blue and build as slight. Also note that his signature is very neat. Address listed is Wyatt and Aikenside. I can't read the house number.
