John's McNamee Family cousin, Donna Lindeman, who is married to Paul Lindeman of Dysart, Iowa. Donna was kind enough to question her husband and write down Paul's comments regarding the Vaupel and Lindeman families. Her response is as follows:
Hello,
I'm interviewing Paul about Dean Vaupel. He was a farmer. His farmland was 1 1/2 mi. north of Dysart on Dysart Road. Seven Hill dirt road was the north boundary of Dean's farmland. Dean died about ten years ago. Dean had a sister in WI. A brother at Spirit Lake, IA was a physician. (Paul's dad used to doctor with him.) Dean and his wife, Dorothy, had no children. Dorothy taught English at Dysart High. Dean's mother was married to Alfred Lindeman. Dean also inherited 160 acres of land from his mother. That land was in Benton Co. East on No. 8, two miles and I mile N., 1/'2 mile east. Paul can't remember which of Myron's uncle's was Alfred's dad. He is pretty sure William Lindeman was Alfred's dad. William Lindeman's home farm was south of Dysart one mile and I/4 mile east of Dysart. Alfred had two brothers. They each inherited 80 acres of the home farm. When Paul knew Alfred, he lived in Black Hawk Co. near Orange, farmed his 80 acres near Dysart and owned a corn sheller. Paul sold fuel to him. When Dean's mother died, Alfred was married again. Paul doesn't remember if Alfred had children. His brother's names were Wilfred and Howard.
There was a Lyle Vaupel in the Dysart area, wife was Mary Lou. They were Dean's age. Paul believes they were not close relatives of Dean. They had no children. They had relatives in Traer.
