          General Notes: Abbie's birthplace was "said prairie 2 miles west of Bay City, Wisconsin," as noted on the birth certificate of her son, Harry Lester Spriggle.

          1930 Census calls her "Ebbie."

            General Notes: Caroline's death certificate states that her birthdate was 20 July 1911.  The 1920 Census says that she turned 7 on her last birthday, which was before 6 Jan 1920.  According to that census, then, she was born in 1912.  The Bay City Cemetery Tombstone Transcription Index says that she lived from 1912-1928.  This same index says that her older brother, Leon, was born 8 Apr 1911.  If his birthdate is accurate, then Caroline could not have been born in 1911.  I suspect she was actually born after January in the year 1912.
