He was on the 1900 census in St. Louis living with my grandfather Foster and his sister Maggie Herzog, Foster. His age was 30. I found a David Herzog listed with the Lye family as a border in 1910 in the city of St. Louis in the 7 ward ( parted?) age 36 which couldn't be right, he would be more like 40. I have a death certificate for a David (Dave) Herzog Found floating in the mississippi River in 1917, age 45, he was a laborer at a flour mill in 1910 St. Louis Mo. So if he was married it would be sometime between 1910 and 1917. So i still have some research to do. Thanks agaim Michele. Dorothy Foster, Cooper
