Very useful data, Cheri, even though Gilbert Lauerman and Emma Homeier had no children; there is another Homeier family of Crown Point that you might check on (Fred and Dorethea), as there is possibly a William Homeier in that family as well as in Henry F. Homeier family, born almost the same year; there is also a William F. Homeier in Maplewood Cem. in Crown Point (1844-1932) with a wife Clara (1846-1920); it is possible all those families are related... Love, Paul

Debbie, I was stunned by the news at the time and have never learned anything more about the tragedy. The entire family was buried at Chapel Lawn in adjoining graves, as I recall...I suppose there was a desire to avoid perpetuating the painful situation by separating the family, since in a way all were victims of whatever induced Jeffrey's rampage. Perhaps there were family tensions that the survivors felt best should be hidden. Paul
