After his older brother Anton died in a mine cave in, and his father had died of black lung, he was he only working person in the family which include his mother and siblings.
However he died at a young age, probably shortly after 1920. As far as family storie go he was never married and had no chilren.
There is a point tha will confuse people, once he died his next oldest brother John Joseph Savant was just too young to work, so his brother took his birth certificate and pretended to be him. This brother was then the bread winner.
This John Savant used the name of his brother for the rest of his life. So many records will be wrong.
