The 1930 Chicago Census with Uncle Leo, Aunt Caroline, and Cousin Leo
Uncle Leo's Draft Registration 5 Jun 1917
Uncle Leo was born on 15 Apr 1895 in Chicago, Illinois. He was baptized on 28 Apr 1895 at St. Basil-Visitation Church, Chicago, Cook, Illinois.
Uncle Leo met and married Caroline Gradt, which must have been the talk of the family, as she was Jewish. They divorced at some point in time. Uncle Leo died on 8 Oct 1947 in Chicago, Illinois.
Caroline died on 4 Feb 1954 in Chicago, Illinois and was buried at the Waldheim Cemetery, Chicago, Cook, Illinois on 8 Feb 1954. Waldheim is a Jewish Cemetery, from my understanding. Together, they had one son, Leo Thomas Jr.
Her obituary states: 1954-02-07 Chicago Tribune (IL) GRADT Edition: Chicago Tribune Caroline Gradt, beloved daughter of the late John and Augusta, dear sister of Erna Masa and the late William, sister-in-law of John Masa, aunt of John, George, William, and Richard Gradt, Carolyn Hendricks, Edith McDermott, and the late Corp.
