My father was named Jacob Leisle, but went by Jack. He didn't like his given name because it sounded too much like German. He worked with his brother Henry through the first war on the farm writing his older brother regularly until Philipp returned from the war. In June of 1942 Jacob (Jack) Leisle married Eunice Valentine Montgomery. His brother's upholstery shop had moved to Glendale, in Los Angeles County.
