I'm wrapping up my posts featuring my maternal grandfather with one or two more. Here was a guy who was involved in both early automobiles and aviation. He wasn't famous; never made much money. He retired to a small home in Burbank, California, where he died in 1983.

Here he is about 1912 in Galesburg, Illinois. This was a picture from "Bible class," according to his handwritten description on the reverse side of the picture. The funny thing is, Grandpa was an atheist. My mother has told me how he felt uncomfortable at an early age saying grace and going to church, like good Lutherans did back in Illinois.

See if you can guess which boy he is here. Thanks for looking. View full size.
