Detail provided courtesy of Tammy Donaldson, contributor #48469143:
He is the 2nd child of Louis & Victorina Manche Crame (Victorina was Americanized to Victoria after they immigrated) The tombstone you see was actually erected in his memory at the time of the death of his mother in 1924. Based on the records we have, it is possible that he was not actually buried there as the family was living in Clearfield county at the time of his death. His brother Amel was born in Houtzdale, Clearfield County the same year Louis died. He was actually born in 1887 not 1878 as is on the stone. In the ship record of January 1888 from when he and his mother and sister immigrated to meet their father, who had immigrated the year that Louis was born, he is listed as being 2 months old. His parents also didn't marry till 1883. His sister Mary Louisa was born in 1884 and is also on the ship record with his mother.
