My father and aunts remember him from when they were kids. Their father (Ross Schall) said that he was an Uncle. I suspect that he was a cousin to his mother Ada Blose Schall. Elmer never married, and lived for a while with Susan and her brother William Sherman Blose (siblings of Ada). He drifted around the area, working as a laborer. I suspect that he may have been mentally retarded, as his WW2 draft registration mentions "mental disability". He gives his nearest relative on that form as Ellen Schall Waltenbaugh, (Ross' sister).
If anyone has any other information as to his parents, or how I am related, please contact me and help me fill in the blanks.
