    1. [BRICK-WALLS] Looking for Arthur Charles Pfeifle
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: dbldeano Surnames: Pfeifle Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.researchresources.brick-20-walls/160/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I have hit one big brick wall- and thought I would post here to see if anyone could help or knows of him.. This is my Grandmother's Father.. ( My Great Grandfather) Arthur Charles Pfeifle Born March 25th 1883 Wayne County, Detroit MI His father is: John Pfeifle Born about 1854 Michigan His Mother is: Lena(Lempke) Pfeifle Born December 1860 Michigan- Died possibly in 1920 He Married Eloise G Heyer(b Dec 1883)on August 2nd 1906. They had Ruth Alice Pfeifle(b Dec 1907), William Pfeifle(b Nov 1911), and John Arthur Pfeifle(Born 1913 range). Arthur Charles Pfeifle is listed on the 1910 census as living with Eloise, and their child Ruth is there. On his war draft registration card, 1917(approx) he is listed as being an inmate in the Detroit House of Corrections, and upon further search of these records at the Detroit Public Library(Burton Hist Collection) he had a warrant out for forgery, was arrested (11-24-17) with a 6 month min sentence, and was noted to be discharged on May 9th 1919- and then I have no longer been able to locate him on any census, death, military, etc records after this point. Arthur's wife and kids were found to be living with his parents on the 1920 census but no record of Arthur. Family stories from my Grandmother and Father are basically that he left and never came back. My Grandmother did not remember him much at all-only that he came and watched her play outside at school, the other kids became scared, then he left. I have attached wedding picture of them, other assumed family members are in background. Any help or input would be appreciated!
