Notes
a. Note:   Grandma Bertha wrote his name as "Carl Albert" Her stories as I recall them reflect the calamity felt by the whole family when Albert died in S. Dakota in 1890, resulting in the remaining Gergollas and ROloffs to return to Chicago. There were tales of the Great Blizzard, somebody being lost, and his body never found, probably eaten by wolves, etc. etc. Granny had a morbid fear of all things wild all her life, and was more comfortable in her bungalow on the south side than traveling by rail with her husband or by car with her son Raymond H. In the footsteps of his son Albert, Carl followed to buy propoerty in Dakota Territory. Doc. #13427, 2/8/1889 Purchased 160 acres, 1 NW Sec 24, 116 N 68 W 5th PM
