A Wilson Family Tree
Notes for Charles Fred (Carl) Lange
In the information from Florine Winkler, he is listed as Carl. In the birth record for son Charles, he is listed as Charles Fred Lange. His birth name might have been Carl Friedrich Lange.
In the Florine Winkler information and in the obituary below, his birth date is given as 1 Jul 1903, but in the gravestone photo on Find A Grave (listing for Emilie Mary "Millie" Miculka Lange) his birth date is given as 1 Jul 1902. (There is no death date in the photo; it looks like maybe he was buried elsewhere.) However, this can't be right unless Florine's birth date for older sister Wilhelmina Lange is also wrong.
