William Sturzenegger, Madera California.

Here's some of the documents I have on William Sturzenegger, father of Myrtle Evelyn Sturzenegger (Lippert) who later moved to Roy Oregon and was buried at Lincon memorial in Portland Oregon.  I haven't yet determined whether the draft registration and the passport application are the same person as the documents list different dates of birth, though only off by ~1 year.

This is Myrtle Evelyn (Sturzenegger) Lippert and Eryn Frederick Lippert's gravestones from Lincoln Memorial Cememtery up on Mt. Scott Blvd. in Portland Oregon.(All of these can be enlarged)
1930 Roy Oregon Census when Myrtle and Ervin lived there after the death of Ervin's parents

I have not yet found records for Duane C. Lippert who is listed on the 1930 census as being a step-son to Ervin in the home. The records I have from Ancestry.com indicate thatthey were married in Mesa, Arizona in 1926.  At the time of the Census in 1930, Duane was 3 1/2 years old so I'm not sure who the father of Duane is.  FWIW, Duane was known in my family as "The kindest man ever" and it was from him that I received my middle name.

John Lippert & Union Point Cemetery, Roy Oregon, Banks Oregon

While working on a genealogy presentation for our Elders Quorum, I ended up researching the name of one of my ancestors, John Lippert.

union point cemetery
I found him in a census from Roy Oregon in 1820, which lists his age as 63 and having been born in 1857. However, a search of cemeteries near Roy Oregon (beginning with the Catholic Cemetery) found he was buried at the Union Point Cemetery in Banks.

I'm enclosing some snapshots of the graves that were located there, however, there's a discrepancy between the grave and the 1920 census as his grave has him born in 1855.

the mapping of the cemetery - there is a 3 ring binder with names that correlates to the map

The rest of these are names I haven't had a chance to verify.
