Levi was born according to WWI draft registration card 492 #80 on November 22, 1886, but his obit has his birth date at November 26, 1886.

Levi was married to Shirley Ann Corman July 22, 1909, and they had 2 children Leo M and Ernest D "Dwight". Shirley and Levi divorced about 1915 and he remarried Frances Mitchell (in some documents listed as Frances Gapen) on April 24, 1918.

I beleive he was a farmer most of his life but at the time of his death he worked for Mummert Seed Company in Astoria, IL.

He was 1 of 9 children:
