Unfortunatly, I do not know my aunts and uncles from Walter Jorgensen's side of the family. He too lived in the Piedmont area of Oakland my family on my grandmother's side owned almost all of the Oakland Hills at one time. They started the very first dairy up there. So he would of had to of met my grandmother in Oakland CA. I know the last place he worked was Univesal Studio's and he died in Reseda CA. I am trying to get his death certificate in hopes of finding out his parents name. I only know Walter Jorgensen married Dorothea Lorraine Sandkuhle and was divorced before 1960 becuase my grandparents where not together when my mother and father where together. Walter had three children, Gene Allen Jorgensen, David Keith Jorgensen, and Joan Jorgensen. As you can tell I am a Jorgensen. My father was killed when I was 11 and I am at a total lost of his side of the family. It was a miracle that I found my great grandfathers side just a couple of weeks ago. The oldest living relative still could not give me much info. regarding my grandfather. I hope the birthcertificate does. Again, Thank you for the reply and I will defently use the infomation you have given me. Terrie
