Earl's obituary appears in Houston Chronicle, June 18, 1925 or 1929 (hard to read), on page 25 under the headline: Funerals

"Funeral services for Earle Stanley Dochtermann, 42, who died at his home, 303 Eastwood Avenue, Wednesday morning, will be held from the Fogle-West Chapel, 1903 McKinney Avenue at 5:30 p.m. today, Rev. W. D. Bratton officiating. Burial will be in evergreen Cemetery under the direction of Fogle-West.
Pallbearers will be: C. E. Roberts, E. A. Newton, L. C. Ojeman, Leroy Wittridge, Fred Dixon and F. C. Carey.
mr. Dochtermann has lived in Houston for the past 16 years and has a host of friends.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Otis May Dochtermann; one sister, Mrs. Emma Hershberger of la Porte, Texas, three brothers, Dr. L. H. Dochtermann of North Dakota, and Will and Charles Dochterman of Indiana."

Earl's first wife was Estella Blair. A Houston City Directory has Earl living at 6404 Sherman, Overland-Houston, TX, which matches the address in Estella's obit.

Earl's obit confirms his second wife as Otis May (or Mae) Flora (m. 1 Mar 1917 Houson, Harris County, TX).

The spelling of Dochterman also in records as Dochtermann. His year of birth may also be in question. His World War I registration says 1881.

Ancestry.com entries would lead one to believe that his parents are William Michael Dochterman (Memorial 30007913) and Lydia Ellen Coffing (Memorial 30007722). However, his Texas death record says that his father is Earle Stanley Dochterman, Sr. Tis' a puzzlement.

On gravesite photo: A volunteer referred to a book that is probably the best known source for records of Evergreen Cemetery. The volunteer didn't find a record for Earl Stanley Dochterman(n). She did find a reference for a W. C. Dochterman(n) buried in the same location as Estella Dochterman(n). To book gave the gravesite location as section B-4 Lot 41. When the volunteer when to that location, she walked the immediate area and saw very few markers in the vicinity.
