Notes
a. Note:   Name: Bryan MurphyEmail: [email protected]:
  I'm pretty sure Lydia Hofer married Jacob W Fischer, Jr
  Their marriage is recorded in the Lake county Marriage Index; book T, pg 308. Wedding date is 16 Oct 1912.
  In the 1920 census, Jacob & Lydia Fischer are living in Lake county IN, Enumeration District 98 (Gary, ward 2, precinct 13), sheet 10A. Louise Hofer (age 72, widowed) is living with them, listed as Mother-in-law.
  In the 1930 census Jacob & Lydia Fischer are listed in Lake county IN, Enumeration District 129 (Hammond, north), sheet 12A. Their address is 617 State Line Rd. Lydia's sister, Louise Young, is the Head-of-household at 618 State Line Rd on the same page.
  According to Jacob Fischer Jr's World War I draft registration card, his birth date is 3 Sept 1883; which is consistent with the ages listed in the censuses.
 I would estimate Lydia (Hofer) Fischer's birth date as about 1888 based on her census listings.
  Jacob & Lydia had at least the following children:
 1. Ruth Fischer, born about 1916
 2. Betty Fischer, born about 1923
  -- This is all correct - confimed by my Grandmother Mary Louise Young-Hofer
