  1. Viola Fecht, but that's a tough one. Do we ever get more of the page for reference?

    2. Thanks! I found that right after I posted the question. Duh! Guess I missed a day. Hard to believe since I find this addictive.

  2. I think Fecht, Viola O.
    (The name Jacob Fecht at the top of the page gave me my clue!)

  3. Viola Fecht

    is it.

    That mark after her first name is not an initial. It is the mark used in 1940 to indicate that she provided the answers to the enumerator.

    1. Thanks for the tidbit about the enumerator mark. I always wondered what those were.
