Yes, there is Edwin W Droege b 2 May 1888, Elsie b Aug 1891, Mildred b Jul 1897.
In the 1910 census, there is a child named Raymond b abt 1901 also.
Raymond was born 9 Jun 1900 and died Jun 1983 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois. |

| Thanks a lot again Tami for your information regarding the Droege`s, you probably already have figured out that Edwin Droege was married to Lillian Jespersen which was a member of the Jespersen family from Norway in Chicago you earlier gave me help finding. Thanks a lot to you to Les , i also noticed that in the information in the 1920 census you provided there is a line saying: Image: 6. What does that actually mean, are we talking about existing photos here? |

I'm not sure what the image 6 means. When I pull up the census it's image 4 of 17, so I don't know. There are no pictures with the census except the census itself.
Yes, I did notice the name and did recognize it! |
