On double marker with Cora E. Carr (1891-1977)

He was quite a character who named one son 'Charlie' (but he went by 'Dick' to avoid confusion) and another 'Charles Edgar, Jr.' He was a notorious bootlegger before, during, and after national prohibition, but apparently he did not drink. The storm cellar was kept so full of liquor at one point that Cora told of how they nearly got killed in a tornado in the 1930's.
