  • Notes 
    • It should be noted that neither John nor Mary A. show up on the 1860 or 1870 census. Given the marriage date of Louis to Susan Prowther, one could question either the marriage date or the children.

      The following are mentioned in the records of local history section of the Kansas City Public Library:
